BuLogics Demonstrates OpenADR2.0a at Grid-Interop Event
IRVING, TX, Dec 18, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
BuLogics, Inc. a leading designer of wireless automation solutions
for the commercial, hospitality, residential and industrial markets,
successfully demonstrated its OpenADR2.0a / Z-Wave demand response
system for multi-dwelling units at the SGIP Grid Interop event held
December 3-6 in Irving, Texas. In addition, the company has presented
a white paper mapping OpenARD2.0a signals to Z-Wave energy control
signals.
BuLogics provides complete building control, automation and energy
management solutions, including the implementation of utility demand
response programs using a variety of technologies, including OpenADR,
Smart Energy Profile and Z-Wave control. BuLogics specializes in
commercial wireless automation ecosystems, particularly in the
retro-fit markets for multi-dwelling apartment units, hospitality and
industrial buildings.
Z-Wave Alliance Chairman Mark Walters stated, "We invited BuLogics to
join the Alliance at the Grid-Interop Plug-In event not only because
they have proven their ability to provide real-world solutions in
multiple installations over the past few years, but also because we
knew they'd be able to iterate rapidly, incorporate the additional
features the new OpenADR2.0a standard has to offer, and provide a
solid live demonstration of these features at this key Plug-In event.
We were pleased to see their solution work perfectly -- receiving
OpenADR2.0a signals from an Akuacom DRAS, acting on those signals
using Z-Wave RF control to provide energy curtailment throughout a
simulated multi-dwelling unit, and sub-metering and reporting the
actual savings back to the DRAS using the OpenADR channel."
In addition to the demonstration, BuLogics also presented a white
paper outlining methods of integration between the OpenADR and
wireless devices using the Z-Wave ecosystem. "We are always on the
lookout for new opportunities to prove that energy efficiency is
viable at mass market," stated BuLogics CTO Ryan Buchert. "This is
not a Beta situation any longer. The best way to start saving energy
and thereby money -- as much as 30% in some situations -- is to begin
implementing the technology now."
