As part of the project, researchers utilized Eclipse VOLTTRON™ to create a network that linked more than a dozen PNNL campus buildings. **Impact**: The project effectively established a new research resource, the Buildings Living Laboratory (BLL), at PNNL, that can be used for a wide range of technology development and deployment purposes. Through CETC, the BLL helped facilitate the development of transactive energy management technologies. These include Intelligent Load Control (ILC), which has been deployed at various locations across the nation, and Transactive Coordination and Control. As a next step, PNNL will make ILC operational in its campus buildings in Richland, WA, to mitigate peak load constraints within Richland’s city-owned electric system. diff --git a/content/Developers.md b/content/Developers.md index b19f25b..dc097e2 100644 --- a/content/Developers.md +++ b/content/Developers.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ --- title: "FOR DEVELOPERS" -description: "Welcome to Eclipse VOLTTRON™" +description: "Welcome to Eclipse VOLTTRON™™" menu: main weight: 40 image: images/MarketsImages/volttron_diagram.png @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ sidebar_left: DevelopersLeft ---
