Energy devices
Saving energy is fun, too. Here are a few of our offerings to help utilities and their
customers use up-to-the-moment information to get a handle on consumption.
The Ambient Energy OrbEnergy Orb
The Energy Orb is a frosted-glass ball that illuminates a varying degree of colors to represent critical peak demand conditions. During high demand, expensive periods, the Orb pulses and changes color to forewarn users when power supplies are strained. The Energy Orb receives signals over the Ambient Information Network, a service delivery infrastructure and wireless network. The Energy Orb is being used by many utilities to show the load on the grid, manage their demand and avoid brownouts. A Zigbee enabled version of the Energy Orb is also available for utilities who want to take advantage of their smart metering initiatives.
Energy Joule
Similar to the Energy Orb, the Energy Joule displays the current price of energy and level of consumption in the home. The Zigbee enabled Energy Joule updates its data continuously from the smart meter. This simple, elegant display that equips utility companies to relay information about energy consumption and demand to customers in real time, encouraging smarter energy consumption choices.
Energy Dash
The Energy Dash expands our suite of glanceable devices with supplemental functionality. In addition to serving as a tool for utility companies to relay information to customers about energy consumption and demand, the Zigbee enabled Energy Dash also provides customers with real time indoor temperature and the option of displaying both individual home and neighborhood level comparative billing data.
