The Furnace Creek Inn is located in Death Valley National Park where summer temperatures regularly reach 125°F. In partnership with SCE the Furnace Creek Inn reduced peak load during demand response events by a max of 1,000 kW, or 50% of peak load. They accomplished this by shutting down unused buildings, shifting golf course irrigation pump use and golf cart charging to off peak times and doing laundry earlier than normal. Along with being a demand response leader the Inn has also saved almost 17 million gallons of water per year with low flow fixtures, decreased golf course irrigation and other measures. Finally, they conducted an extensive lighting retrofit that cuts overall energy use.
