A New World
Many things are changing in the World today
• Vast Growth: Limited Energy Sources• Aging Energy Infrastructures• Disaster in Japan
Japan: An Energy Milestone
Countries: Rethinking Nuclear Sources• Germany: Nuclear Free by 2020 (March 2011)
• 23% from Nuclear today
"Consumers must be prepared for significantly higher electricity prices in the future“
Wolfgang Franz - Head of Germany’s Independent Economic Advisory Body (March 2011)
•
Involving the Consumer
• Energy Prices: Increasing• Consumers: Take Control of Energy Costs• Social Consciousness: Increasing
Example: Toyota Prius• Becomes a Game• Real Time Feedback• Cost Savings Realized• +2M sold!!
Involving the Consumer
Could this occur in: • Homes• Commercial • Industrial• Offices
What would be the Impact?

Personal Computing Empowered the Consumer
Empowering Energy Consumers
• Use technology to inform consumers and change their behavior
• Residential consumers will reduce their energy consumption by up to 15% with real time feedback on their usage 1
• You could reduce commercial building energy consumption an additional 12% by providing occupants information on their energy usage

Taking Energy for Granted
• Most consumers don’t think about energy usage…until the bill arrives
• Daily routines dictate energy consumption
• Consumers lack understanding of potential savings beyond the thermostat
• They need knowledge of functional cost
• Dishwasher = $1.02 now, $0.45 at 8:00pm
Where to Measure Usage?
Smart Circuit Breaker
Smart Plug
Integrated in Product
Integration Trends
• “White goods” already trending toward connectivity features
• E.g. Use a smartphone to pre-heat oven while planning dinner on the drive home from work
• Adding energy awareness is a small incremental cost
• Majority of cost is in communications components
Integrated Energy Measurement
Characterization of Power: A fixed value for energy consumption is measured in laboratory & stored in device• Numerous combinations of functionality• Communicates energy usage to HAN/Gateway• No added cost for connected devices
Real-time Measurement: Added electronics measure actual energy consumption during product use. • Represents actual consumer use based on functionality selected• Communicates energy usage to HAN/Gateway• Adds cost for measurement
Must Be Convenient
Portable Devices• Anytime anywhere• Phone is sunk cost
In-Home Displays•Always on •Walk by glances
Integrated on Product• Cost info @ point of use• LCD’s moving to lower priced models
