EnerNOC has acquired Activation Energy, a provider of demand response software and services in Ireland. This acquisition gives EnerNOC an immediate presence in the Irish capacity market and further strengthens EnerNOC’s ability to deliver its full suite of energy intelligence software applications throughout Europe.
