WPS ramps up energy conservation with EnergyHub

The EnergyHub home energy management system has been selected by Wisconsin Public Service Corporation (WPS) for the iCanConserve energy conservation project, which was developed to help people become more aware and active in energy management and conservation.

According to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the average annual energy bill for a single-family home in the U.S. is $2,200. Research shows that the use of real-time feedback and controls can save consumers up to 20 percent on their monthly electric bills. EnergyHub's home energy management solution offers consumers real-time insight into their energy usage and control over specific appliances in the home, helping them discover smart ways to reduce energy costs and save money.

The 150 households participating in the program will receive EnergyHub products at no cost, including the Home Base in-home display, wireless thermostats, and smart Sockets and Strips, as well as real-time, whole-home energy data either from a wireless current transformer sensor (WCTS) or smart meters installed by WPS.

Deployment of these solutions is already underway.
