Demand Response for Manufacturing Sites

Improved margins and sustainability goals

With energy prices continuing to rise, stricter climate policies being enforced and margins becoming tighter, manufacturers are seeking new ways to find energy efficiencies, increase their bottom line and reduce costs. 

Due to typically high usage of energy-intensive equipment in manufacturing processes, many businesses in the sector are well placed to take advantage of Demand Response services and find the efficiencies they’re looking for. 

Equipment and assets like generators, pumps, compressors and batteries are ideal sources to allow participation in Demand Response services. By doing so, participating manufacturing sites become solution providers to the power system and enable more renewable energy to be consumed, all while benefiting from a new revenue stream for the business.

We wanted to do more to support carbon reduction and boost renewable utilisation nationally. I engaged with VIOTAS to understand how Mannok could become an active grid participant by using our large flexible loads to provide Frequency Response services to the Irish grid.

VIOTAS had the knowledge to provide me with the market details, road map, and confidence to proceed with our ambition to participate in the Frequency Response Market.
