Smart home data management and reduction of energy cost and consumption
The electric grid of the future will require treating data differently, leveraging metadata and performing analysis locally to process the mountain of new data available. A traditional system would have relied on relatively few sources of field information, whereas new devices on the grid add large amounts of data that quickly and accurately describe the state of the system.
With this demonstration, we periodically collect energy data and use it for three main purposes: reporting, monitoring, and distributing energy information. Trend analysis and tracking energy consumption identifies cost-saving opportunities. Real-time responses and dialogue with other deployed devices distribute energy information to devices that manage the grid.
