摘要： A system for displaying an electronic representation of the consumption of a resource by a device comprises a communication network, a database, and visual display. The database is accessible by an information processor of the network and stores information including a maximum rated amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device and the actual amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device. The visual display provides an electronic representation of the resource, the amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device and the amount of the resource saved as a function of the electronic device information, wherein the visual display presents the electronic representation in a graphical format. The graphical format of the electronic representation is a graph formatted with a range of values and an indicator of an indicated value in the range. The range of values is operable to dynamically change when the consumption of the resource by the at least one device exceeds the maximum rated amount of the resource consumed by the at least one device.
