Case Study: Pennsylvania Cold Storage Facility generates over $10,000/month with Voltus demand response

Pennsylvania cold storage facility generates over $10,000/month supporting electric grid reliability

Pennsylvania Cold Storage Facility, a Pennsylvania cold storage site, wanted to offset high electricity costs by creating a new revenue stream through demand response while also supporting grid reliability and its ESG goals. Voltus evaluated the facility’s operations to assess demand response eligibility and identified about 1 MW of curtailable load.

Voltus then installed its Voltlet monitoring device, gave the customer access to its platform for real-time energy visibility and reporting, and coordinated a curtailment plan focused on refrigeration systems. With Voltus’s technology and support, the customer earned over $120,000 in 2022, averaging more than $10,000 per month.
