What is environmental demand response (EDR)? How does EDR work? What are the short-term and long-term power grid benefits from using EDR? What are the applications?
Introducing the JuiceBox Green 40! Stay tuned for Q&A session at the end.

Whenever an appliance turns on, a single power plant ramps up slightly to fuel it.
But which power plant? It changes up to every 5 minutes.
Therefore, the carbon footprint of an appliance depends on precisely when it runs.
What’s fueling your devices?

WattTime analyzes the grid in real time.
Our servers estimate which power plant you are using at any given time and place.
Our API translates this for smart devices into a CO2 intensity and a forecast.
With EDR, devices can automatically reduce carbon footprints through timing.

• Power plant pollution data from US EPA Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS) or foreign equivalent
• Matched with real-time power market data from Independent System Operators (ISOs) or utilities through the Open-Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS)
• Algorithms developed by UC Berkeley PhD students
Where do our data come from?

Most Electricity Timing is Flexible
Most appliances consume energy in bursts of power.
WattTime times these bursts to clean moments.

What are clean moments?
The power grid offers a mix of both clean and dirty energy. By timing energy use to when cleaner power
plants are active, or clean moments, we can reduce our carbon footprint.
