The EcoFactor Proactive Energy Efficiency service uses data collected from Internet-connected thermostats to run patented energy algorithms, and automatically minimizes homeowner energy consumption.
Our algorithms understand not only how individual homes heat up and cool down, but also the consumer’s comfort preferences. We then use this information to make small setpoint adjustments in real time, giving consumers the energy savings they want, without requiring them to constantly monitor and adjust their thermostat. Now here's a fast and easy way to launch a value-added energy service that results in greater savings and consumer satisfaction.
