PowerWatch Helps Canadians Real-time electricity monitoring saves money and energy Toronto, April 17: The energy crisis facing Canada will not be solved by building more capacity - it will be solved when Canadians begin to change their energy usage habits. We make energy decisions every day, and conservation should form the basis for those decisions so that we can save money while helping the environment. PowerWatch is a new, cost-effective, powerful, residential energy monitoring device, providing real-time energy consumption information empowering Canadian consumers to save money and energy. Rather than waiting for your energy bill to review your energy costs, the PowerWatch system provides immediate cost and consumption information to enable consumers to make energy usage and conservation decisions in real-time. PowerWatch measures the consumption of electricity with an energy measurement unit, and displays this information on a wireless module that can be located anywhere in your home. It tracks your energy consumption and costs on an accumulated hourly, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis – for up to a full 10 years. A Canadian innovation, PowerWatch measures your energy consumption and costs on an aggregate and time-of-day basis, ensuring you can accurately track your energy costs regardless of the peak versus low usage pricing set by your local supplier. Building Smart Homes, innovative and responsible Ontario developers can offer a PowerWatch device as a value-added accessory, offering home buyers a powerful energy conservation tool, allowing them to become energy-conscious homeowners. PowerWatch will be a smart companion to smart meters for local distribution companies (LDCs), enabling residential energy consumers to track their energy use and costs in real-time, a feature smart meters alone can not provide. The PowerWatch system will be featured at the Green Living Show, April 27 – 29 at the Direct Energy Centre – Hall A, Exhibition Place, Toronto, ON. We are also a proud sponsor and partner of the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) "Sustainable Condo" at the Green Living Show, and will be part of the traveling exhibition, allowing energy consumers across Canada to witness the capabilities of the PowerWatch technology. Conserving energy involves changing habits. PowerWatch changes habits.
