Energy Usage and Efficiency

In-home energy displays can provide great insight about usage, which can then help you prioritize energy-efficiency improvements and develop an action plan.
There are a number of devices on the market today and advances in technology will likely lead to enhanced devices in the near future. Here are some examples:
