Residential Energy Monitoring
The Enetics SPEED™ (Single Point End-user Energy Disaggregation)
recorder can be used to not only obtain total residence energy
consumption, but also the energy consumption of individual
appliances in the residence. This information can be used for load
research, monitoring demand side management programs and addressing
high bill complaints.
Recording residential energy consumption is easy with the Enetics
SPEED (Single Point End-user Energy Disaggregation) recorder. This
is a meter adapter recorder which simply plugs into the meter base
and then the meter plugs into the meter adapter to close the
circuit. In addition, the SPEED recorder is the only recorder on the
market which can give you energy consumption of individual
appliances in the residence by making measurements only at the
meter. This is done using patented power signature recognition
algorithms and avoids having to install individual power recording
units at each appliance. Major applications are:
- Load research
- Verification of DSM programs
- Formulation of TOU pricing by load type
- Detection of theft of services
- Resolution of high bill complaints.
Power suppliers can also enhance their customer service and image by
providing to the customer information (perhaps for a nominal fee)
about where his high energy consumption is coming from. Enetics also
provides a service whereby we will analyze the data and provide a
report regarding energy consuming loads.

The LD-1100 and LD-1200 recorders incorporate the proprietary
Enetics SPEED technology. SPEED™ (Single Point End-Use Energy
Disaggregation) technology, determines energy consumption of
individual loads by installing a special function metering device at
a single point; either at the meter or at the breaker panel, and
without requiring expensive instruments attached to each appliance.
(87%-97% accurate). This makes possible not only
monitoring/recording energy consumption of the whole residence, but
also the individual appliances within. |
