1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, for a first subset of a plurality of properties participating in a demand response event at which a control strategy was executed, a first type of feedback that indicates an energy increase at the respective property in response to executing the control strategy at the properties in the first subset;
receiving, for a second subset of the plurality of properties, a second different type of feedback that indicates an energy change at the respective property in response to executing the control strategy, wherein the second subset of the plurality of properties is different from the first subset of the plurality of properties;
adjusting the executed control strategy for the demand response event using (i) the first type of feedback that indicates an energy increase at the respective property for the first subset of the plurality of properties, (ii) the second different type feedback that indicates an energy change at the respective property from the second subset of the plurality of properties, and (iii) one or more control strategy criteria that indicate target energy requirements for a property during the demand response event; and
executing the adjusted control strategy at the plurality of properties for the demand response event.
