Canadian Company To Launch Connected Energy Management System at CEDIA Expo

Canadian control company Wing Energy will launch at CEDIA Expo next week a home energy management system based on a connected circuit breaker panel. The Wing Smart Panel provides details of energy usage at the device or circuit level via a mobile app, said the company. Users can read real-time data usage or historical information organized by hour, day, week or other time periods they define, said Wing. The system can analyze information and compare it with other Wing smart panel owners’ usage, historical information, standards established for certain devices or homes and to the readings on their energy bill, it said. The system can be programmed to alert users if they are going to exceed established budgets or, in tiered billing areas, provide suggestions on time of use of appliances or other devices, it said.
