Unfortunately, many utilities have not considered how utility assets can be leveraged to add value. The smart home market is experiencing dramatic growth, whether through smart home service providers or individual smart products. Understanding the how the market is evolving is essential to positioning the utility as a competitor and value added partner for smart home services. Utilities are well positioned to create value and incremental revenue through energy consumption and pricing data and energy management services. This presentation will describe the numerous opportunities for utilities to participate in the smart home market.

Home Energy Management: Improving the Quality of Life with Increased Efficiency, Reduced Costs and Overall Customer Satisfaction will explore the continued desire among customers to reduce bills, regulatory mandates for greater efficiency, wider use of variable pricing schemes, and a strong green sentiment helping drive HEMS adoption forward. Attendees can also expect to explore new HEMS product offerings and technologies that are more desirable for customers and cost effective ways to acquire them.
