%X This paper presents a distributed controller for adjusting
   the electrical consumption of a residential building in
   response to an external power setpoint in Watts. The
   controller is based on a multi\-agent system and has been
   implemented in JCSP. It is modularly built, capable of
   self\-configuration and adapting to a dynamic environment.
   The paper describes the overall architecture and the
   design of the individual agents. Preliminary results from
   proof\-of\-concept tests on a real building are included.
