utility demand-response support

Utility-aware optimization is well supported in the reviews, which describe shifting HVAC use toward cheaper or cleaner energy periods.

Time-of-use and community energy features are described, but one reviewer could not enable all utility-linked savings options because their provider was unsupported.

Time-of-use and low-peak adjustments are mentioned as part of the savings toolkit.

The supporting reviews mention off-peak or community power-plan features tied to utility-aware energy use.

Nest Renew lets users set off-peak hours, showing some utility-rate-aware support.
