Home Joule: Intelligent Home Energy Monitor

This monitor is a mash-up of a bunch of different pieces of information to create a better view of your energy usage and costs.

It gets information about time-of-day costs and local weather, and combines this with your energy usage. This allows you to see what usage times are costing you the most, let’s you see when your usage is unusually high, and lets you predict when your bill is going to spike.

This monitor has the benefit of using additional sources of information to help you better analyze your electricity usage.

This is being tested in select markets before hitting the shelves soon. If you are in New York city, you can get one for testing from Consumerpowerline. If you’re outside New York, you’re outside the testing area, but send them an email anyway and you might be able to get your hands on one.
