Honeywell partners with Enel North America for power grid stability

Hamed Heyhat, President, Honeywell Smart Energy & Thermal Solutions, mentioned the importance of solutions that offer rapid response capabilities for grid stability. He stated, "Through our partnership with Enel North America, we are directly addressing these challenges by providing customers with readily available solutions that not only streamline the integration process but also deliver tangible benefits in terms of efficiency, cost savings, and grid reliability."

This collaboration combines Enel's expertise in demand response with Honeywell's automation systems to offer solutions that enhance energy efficiency, flexibility, and potential revenue generation. It aligns with Honeywell's focus on automation, the future of aviation, and energy transition.

Molly Jerrard, Head- Demand Response, Enel North America, highlighted the economic and operational advantages of the partnership, stating, "The future of energy lies in flexibility.
