eMonitor Home Energy Tracker; Video

Selected Song: OUR HOUSE by Madness

From the product description:

The Powerhouse Dynamics eMonitor is the world's first affordable, whole-house, circuit-by-circuit energy monitoring and management system.

The eMonitor's unique combination of hardware, software, and services let you view your home's 24x7, minute-by-minute electricity use, electricity cost, and carbon footprint, as well as historical information by day, month, or year, all in a personalized and intuitive graphical interface from anywhere you can access the internet. It also provides cost estimates based on current and past usage.

The cutting-edge feature of the eMonitor is its capability to display electricity use by individual circuit so you can see real-time and historical information on major appliances, entertainment centers, and specific rooms. The eMonitor is also equipped for future capability to remotely control individual outlets and thermostats, and will integrate with many existing home control systems.

The eMonitor dashboard, viewable on the web or on your iPhone, provides customized energy saving recommendations based on your home's energy usage. 


"With projected savings of 5 to 20 percent from existing bills, a consumer who spends a lot on energy could save $400 to $500 a year," Flusberg said. "But at this point, it seems that most interest has been from people who want clues for finding where they are wasting energy."

In my novel there's a housing community that has eco-technology.
