Energy Services Platform

See The Future of Energy Management with ESP

The Comprehensive Energy Efficiency Solution

We all want to better manage our energy use, but how can people control what they can't see? Consumers need more information than they get from a monthly electric bill, and People Power's Energy Service Platform (ESP) can give it to them. ESP is cloud-based software that manages real-time and historical information from energy-consuming devices and the smart grid. Then, using key insights from behavioral science, ESP analyzes and displays that information in customizable, personalized ways that maximize its usefulness and motivate users to make informed decisions on how best to save. With remote or on-site control capabilities, ESP puts easy and engaging energy management in consumers' hands. And with solutions that manufacturers and service providers can offer to both residential and commercial users, there are ways for everyone to harness the power of ESP.

For Residential Users:

What if you knew that your tiered energy rate plan was about to jump up? Or that your refrigerator's energy use was higher than normal?

Residential consumers who want to save on their home energy bill may not know where to start, because they don't know which devices consume the most energy, and when. ESP provides residential consumers with the information they need to manage their household energy use, via an engaging user interface that leverages the power of games, social networking, goal-setting, competition, and real-time and pre-programmed device control. ESP also alerts consumers to potential rate increases, abnormally high energy use, and time-of-use rate changes, so there are no surprises at the end of the month.

For Commercial Users:

What if you could give facilities managers the information they needed to make smart energy-efficiency purchasing decisions? Or engage employees in a friendly competition to reduce their energy use?

While businesses are concerned with reducing their energy costs, it is often the employees who make decisions on energy use, from facilities managers who decide which office equipment to purchase, to employees who turn off or leave on their computers all weekend. Through real-time device-level energy use information, intra-office games and competitions, and a variety of other monitor and control capabilities, ESP helps businesses give these employees the knowledge and motivation they need to make the right choices when it comes to energy use.
