Volt@ware introduces a new product called Volt@ that provides data about electricity usage anywhere in the home. A device communicates with a smartphone or tablet through a unique app to all consumers to monitor and report on energy usage.
Kensington, London -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2015 -- As energy prices continue to rise, consumers are looking for a way to save on electricity consumption. The new Volt@ Sensor by Volt@ware uses advanced algorithms and data collection methods to monitor the electricity use for the home and conveys that information through a smartphone app so that consumers can learn more about how they are using energy in every room of the house.
Consumers simply and non-intrusively plug the Volt@ Sensor into a standard 50 Hz/220V or 60 Hz/110V breaker box and download the app. The Volt@ Sensor immediately begins monitoring energy consumption throughout the home and offers the consumer feedback on ways to make small changes to the daily routine to save energy, whether certain appliances of the home consume more energy than expected and where this energy is being used. All of this data is reported on-the-go through the consumer's smartphone or tablet.
Volt@ Sensor uses advanced disaggregation algorithms to measure the level of energy usage by appliance by sampling at a much higher frequency than smart meters. This allows Volt@ Sensor to constantly track the usage of electricity and reports on any anomalies. Continuous monitoring builds a profile of energy use that can help the consumer reduce consumption and energy bills.
Through the unique Volt@ app, the Volt@ cloud will also notify the consumer in case of any unexpected electricity use at home to identify appliances that may be faulty. The Volt@ Sensor will notify the consumer if appliances are left on and will analyze electricity bills for insights on power use patterns. Finally, Volt@ cloud also notifies the consumer if a cheaper electricity tariff becomes available in the area.
By using Volt@ware's Volt@ Sensor, consumers can gather meaningful data on their energy consumption and make informed changes to save money. Volt@ware is currently conducting a crowdsourcing Kickstarter campaign to gather funds to market this unique and important device at http://kck.st/1CuWtip
