Using digital energy technologies connected by Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE network, Duke Energy will gather and aggregate energy usage data from about 70 participating buildings, including Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Duke Energy and city-owned buildings, in Charlotte’s 1.94square mile I-277 inner-belt loop.
The information will then be streamed to large interactive lobby-level screens provided by Cisco.
Building tenants will see the nearly real-time commercial energy consumption data for the community and suggested actions they can take to reduce their personal energy usage in the office, the company said.
