Abstract: Methods and systems for providing consumer directed energy management are described. Consumer defined triggers provide consumers and utilities with the ability to control residential energy usage, by managing manage multiple residential load control elements. A user interface is provided separately from the load control elements to allow the consumer to define his or her schedule and preferences for the purposes of controlling the multiple load control elements. In addition, settings on load control elements can be automatically adjusted based on information about consumer schedules and preferences obtained from other sources. In some embodiments, a utility interface allows utilities to implement improved energy load control. When a utility expects to implement a load control event, the utility can monitor consumer schedules and/or preferences, in order to achieve the desired energy reduction while reducing the impact on participating consumers' comfort.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing collaborative energy benchmarking are described. Information including background data, energy consumption data, temporal data, and/or other information is gathered from multiple sources and stored in a central database. Based on the stored information, energy benchmarks are created for measuring residential energy usage. Energy usage data is displayed to consumers in multiple formats, and permits consumers to directly compare their energy usage data to other consumers or groups of consumers, in addition to their own energy usage. In some embodiments, energy challenge programs encourage reduction of energy usage. Through such programs, consumers create and present challenges for themselves and/or other consumers, such as to reduce energy usage during a given timeframe. The progress of the group and individual consumers is displayed during the course of a challenge.
Abstract translation: 描述了提供协同能量基准测试的系统和方法。 包括背景数据，能量消耗数据，时间数据和/或其他信息的信息从多个来源收集并存储在中央数据库中。 基于存储的信息，创建能量基准用于测量住宅用电量。 能量消耗数据以多种格式显示给消费者，并允许消费者除了自己的能源使用外，还可以将其能源使用数据直接与其他消费者或消费者群体进行比较。 在一些实施例中，能量挑战程序鼓励减少能量消耗。 通过这样的方案，消费者为自己和/或其他消费者创造和提出挑战，例如在给定的时间段内减少能源消耗。 在挑战过程中显示团体和个人消费者的进展情况。
