Case Study: Roadstone Ltd achieves energy cost savings and new revenue with Enel X demand response

Roadstone Ltd cuts energy spend by 3-5% a year with Enel X

Roadstone Ltd, a major Irish supplier of construction materials, faced rising operational costs from its energy-intensive quarries. Seeking to reduce overheads without raising prices, the company needed a new way to achieve its annual energy reduction targets after a previous peak-load reduction scheme was discontinued. Roadstone partnered with vendor Enel X to implement a demand response solution.

Enel X provided a flexible demand response program that allowed Roadstone to earn revenue by reducing energy usage during peak grid times without economic penalties for opting out. The solution was implemented across eight sites and single-handedly met the company's annual savings targets at each location. This created a sizable new revenue stream and helped Roadstone continue its streak of reducing its total corporate energy spend by 1-3% annually.
