That, in turn, could make power failures less likely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By helping the California electricity grid manage swings in demand for energy, OhmConnect gets paid by utilities or government agencies and then passes along some of the savings to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe grid needs resources to be as flexible and as responsive as they can possibly be, in order to support the reliability that we need,\u201d said Andrew McAllister, a member of the California Energy Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercurynews.com\/2021\/06\/16\/heat-wave-oakland-energy-company-1-million-free-smart-thermostat-pge\/\">Link to article on Mercury News web site<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amid a&nbsp;major&nbsp;heat wave that is stressing energy grids in states across the&nbsp;western United States,&nbsp;Governor Gavin Newsom has signed an emergency proclamation to free up additional energy capacity.
