Our Punchline
We are a third generation energy management
company for grid-tied and off-grid homes. While other
companies provide visualization and monitoring of PV
systems, we provide intelligent appliance-level
profiling, personalized energy recommendations,
and home specific energy optimizations.
Market: new product in an existing market.

Cost-benefit Analysis (off-grid)
primary cost (use of the generator) <=> per month electricity bill
6-8 hours of use
(5 gallons) $2.7/ hour
Winters
(2*10) hours
Maintenance cost
($4/month)
$60/month
Our data analysis on this house’s data shows that through
task rescheduling the use of the generator during the
winter can be PREVENTED
In an off-grid home
we can save Upto
$60/month

Dialogue with Investors
They wanted a cost-benefit analysis of our system
Follow up meeting with 3 investors to show demonstrations
Extend our system to commercial buildingsWal-mart, Retails ADT looking at energy conservation

Other Key Learnings
Partner with home automation systems such as Control4.
- Users pay from $1000 -- $120,000 over 2-3 years in installation and
maintenance fee
- their energy management tools are manual
Focus on states where there is a time-of-daypricing structure
- CA, NY, CO, OR, Washington, Vermont, Arizona.
