Utility-driven Smart Energy Services
This project developed utility-driven smart energy services to improve grid energy efficiency, encourage energy conservation, and promote local renewable energy sources, such as rooftop solar. The research focused on developing new energy analytic techniques for smart meter data, combining these in novel ways to create specific applications that improve energy efficiency, packaging those applications as cloud-based web services that are accessible to end users, and evaluating their impact on user behavior and energy efficiency. This project was funded by the National Science Foundation under grant CNS-19254646 and a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER).
