BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 19, 2006--As the nationwide triple-digit temperature heat wave drove record highs for power use in many U.S. markets yesterday, EnerNOC, Inc. played a critical role helping regional grid operators achieve significant reductions in end-user demand in order to avert potential blackouts.

In New York, the second straight day of 95 degree temperatures led to a new record peak power demand and prompted the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) to request delivery of EnerNOC's emergency demand response capacity beginning yesterday at 1:00 pm and extending to 10:00 pm. EnerNOC responded by automatically implementing predefined processes with dozens of its commercial and industrial end-use customers to cut back their energy consumption and/or utilize backup power sources.

In California, EnerNOC's resources were called on by the California ISO for the fourth straight business day. The heat wave currently gripping California resulted in a new all-time record peak power demand on Monday and pushed the state to within 1% of another new peak on Tuesday. EnerNOC mobilized dozens of supermarkets, universities, and other customers to conserve energy and help California avoid blackouts or brownouts.

New England also experienced record electricity demand on Tuesday, but narrowly managed to satisfy the region's power demands without tapping EnerNOC's demand response resources. EnerNOC stood ready to deliver hundreds of megawatts of capacity to New England, and provided an important "insurance policy" for the grid in the event that any generating or transmission asset failed.

EnerNOC's highly automated systems and processes enable it to rapidly and efficiently manage hundreds of distributed resources for multiple concurrent events across the country. Today's events again demonstrated EnerNOC's ability to help solve one of the electric industry's most challenging issues - delivering peak demand capacity in a reliable and cost-effective manner.

In addition to safeguarding the electric grid, EnerNOC delivers real value for hundreds of commercial, industrial and institutional customers who are able to reduce their net power consumption during peak demand events. These customers receive significant quarterly financial payments from EnerNOC, advanced notice of any impending power quality issues, and the satisfaction of contributing to the reliability of the regional power grid.

"Our vision for demand response was designed to address the exact scenario we faced across the nation today where more energy is required than what is available with existing resources," commented Tim Healy, CEO of EnerNOC. "Our advanced technology for conservation enables hundreds of large power users to take a more active role in solving today's energy crises."

While temperatures tomorrow are forecasted to moderate in most of the country, it is inevitable that peak power demand records set this week will be broken again in the future. EnerNOC is committed to expanding its capabilities to deliver the most cost-effective, reliable, and environmentally-friendly peak load management solution in the industry.
