Demand Flexibility Isn’t Optional Anymore: How Enersponse Is Turning Buildings Into Grid Assets
Welcome to The Down Low with Joe | Episode 24 | 26/03/25
Commercial buildings are missing the biggest energy opportunity of the decade.
As grid volatility increases and carbon regulations tighten, demand flexibility isn’t just a bonus - it’s becoming essential. But most buildings aren’t ready. And the gap between grid signals and real building action is wider than ever.
In this episode, we sit down with Rachel Permut, Chief Business Development Officer at Enersponse, to explore how their team is transforming commercial and industrial properties into real-time grid assets.
🎯 What we cover:
↳ Why demand flexibility is still an afterthought in commercial real estate ↳ How Enersponse automates demand response using control partners and APIs
↳ Why ZIP code matters more than building type for energy programs ↳ The untapped potential of data centers, crypto facilities, and agriculture
↳ How labor shortages and legacy systems are driving automation
↳ What “Clean Response” means - and how carbon intensity is now a trigger
📌 Watch now to understand how automation, flexibility, and real-time data are changing the grid - and why this matters for the Climate Gap.
