Abstract

See full text

A method (700) and system (100) for facilitating direct load control in an HVAC system while maintaining customer comfort is provided. A local controller (101) coupled to a HVAC system, receives direct load control signals from a remote source (111), such as an energy provider or utility. An analysis module (106) concurrently monitors the ambient temperature at the customer location. Where the ambient temperature reaches or exceeds a maximum temperature set point, the analysis module (106) modifies the load control signals to cause a local load (102), such as an air conditioner or heat pump, to maintain a customer comfort level.
