摘要： A thermostat my include a stored setpoint schedule, temperature sensors providing temperature sensor measurements; and a processing system configured to control an HVAC system based at least in part on the setpoint temperature and the temperature sensor measurements. The processing system may be configured to control the HVAC system by receiving an indication of a first time interval, where energy is available to the HVAC system at a first rate during the first time interval, energy is available to the HVAC system at a second rate during a second time interval that is outside of the first time interval, and the first rate is higher than the second rate; identifying a first one or more setpoints in the plurality of setpoints of the stored setpoint schedule that occur in the first time interval; and decreasing a temperature component of at least one of the first one or more setpoints.

摘要： A method for authorizing a smart-home device for enrollment with a demand-response program may include receiving, at a control server of an energy management system and for the smart-home device, identifying information for a user account. The method may also include sending the identifying information from the control server to an Application Program Interface (API) with an enrollment request. The method may additionally include receiving, at the control server, a determination from the API as to whether the identifying information for the user account was matched to an existing utility account. The method may further include based on the determination from the API, determining whether the smart-home device can be enrolled with the demand-response program.

摘要翻译： 授权智能家居设备用于通过请求 - 响应程序进行注册的方法可以包括在能量管理系统的控制服务器和智能家居设备处接收用户帐户的识别信息。 该方法还可以包括将识别信息从控制服务器发送到具有注册请求的应用程序接口（API）。 该方法可以另外包括在控制服务器处接收关于用户帐户的识别信息是否与现有公用事业帐户相匹配的来自API的确定。 该方法还可以包括基于来自API的确定，确定智能家居设备是否可以与请求响应程序一起登记。
