A Tale of Two…StatesBut the two states agree on the matters of energy data access
Home Area Network (HAN)10s – 1min interval dataReal Time
AMI/Green Button (GB)15/60min interval data
24 hours delayed
Both States opened HAN data access in addition to GB data
GB data mostly used for displays…
Online access to consumption dataAlso used for Bill Projection, Neighborhood Comparison, Tier Change Alerts

Conclusion Conclusion
There is magic in the dataInitial pilots show 4%-10% reduction in energy consumption and high consumer enthusiasm about their energy data
Cloud based solutions are powerfulInternet bandwidth and cloud storage are a commodityUse them to collect, store, analyze, learn and compare the data
Consumer Behavior has large untapped savings potentialMake energy information fun through insights that are personalBring energy consciousness to millions by engaging in real-time
Our MissionEmpower consumers and utilities by generating value out of data
