BGE’s deployment of the OPOWER customer engagement platform is scheduled to begin shortly after the company begins installing smart meters.
OPOWER CEO and co-founder Dan Yates said the enhanced electricity delivery system, or smart grid, is being built across the country to enable the companies to use energy more efficiently.
OPOWER’s ACE platform takes individual and neighborhood energy-usage data and transforms it into personalized reports that help customers understand their own energy usage more clearly.
The reports also offer advice on ways to reduce energy use, helping customers lower their gas and electricity bills.
