The volumes of data around energy usage proves overwhelming for homeowners, business managers, and utilities alike. Although the data is readily available online, the people who need to access and manage it need the information in a way which would help them make informed decisions about how to more proactively manage energy usage. Couple this challenge with the need to coordinate with the utilities, and the challenge is complicated indeed. However, the leaders in the home energy monitoring space are leveraging the software and database solutions and skills from the tech industry and applying it to the needs of homeowners, to generate informed, actionable reports for proactive consumers. Join us this month to hear how one entrepreneur leverage his tech skills, connections and experience to launch a company in this hot clean energy sub-industry.
