에미션즈 수요 대응 이벤트를 수행하는 기술이 설명된다. 예를 들어, 클라우드 기반 HVAC 제어 서버 시스템은 미리 정의된 미래 기간에 대한 에미션즈 레이트 예측을 수신한다. 에미션즈 레이트 예측을 이용하여 미리 정의된 미래 기간 동안 복수의 시점에 대한 복수의 에미션즈 차이 값이 생성된다. 에미션즈 차이 값은 시간에 따른 예상된 에미션즈의 변화를 나타낸다. 복수의 에미션즈 차이 값과 미리 정의된 최대 개수의 에미션즈 수요 대응 이벤트에 기초하여, 미리 정의된 미래 기간 동안 에미션즈 수요 대응 이벤트가 생성된다. 클라우드 기반 HVAC 제어 서버 시스템은 생성된 에미션즈 수요 대응 이벤트에 따라 온도 조절기가 HVAC 시스템을 제어하도록 한다. Techniques for performing an emissions demand response event are described. In an example, a cloud-based HVAC control server system obtains a first emissions rate forecast. The cloud-based HVAC control server system generates an emissions demand response (EDR) event based on the first emissions rate forecast, the EDR event comprising a start time and an end time. Prior to the start time, the cloud-based HVAC control server system transmits the generated EDR event over a data network to a thermostat located in a structure remote from the cloud-based HVAC control server system. The thermostat stores the EDR event in a memory of the thermostat and commences, at said start time, control of an HVAC system according to the generated EDR event. Subsequent to said start time and prior to said end time, the cloud-based HVAC control server system obtains a second emissions rate forecast and generates, subsequent to obtaining said second emissions rate forecast and prior to said end time, a modified EDR event, the modified EDR event comprising a modified end time. The cloud-based HVAC control server system transmits, at a time prior to an earlier of the end time and the modified end time, the modified EDR event to the thermostat. Upon receiving the modified EDR event by the thermostat, the thermostat stores said modified EDR event in its memory and controls the HVAC system according to the modified EDR event until said modified end time is reached.
