1. Introduction

Our Services give users access to equiwatt’s smart energy platform and the company’s energy rewards program. The smart energy platform has been developed to launch a form of demand-side response (DSR) for the smart grid that reduces peak-time demand by modifying electrical load characteristics on the UK’s energy network at certain times of day by engaging with residential energy consumers. Users are rewarded points via their smart meter for either reducing peak-time energy or shifting energy to off-peak hours by turning appliances and devices on or off manually at the plug socket or automatically by leveraging the functionality of internet-enabled devices such as smart plugs, electric vehicles and smart appliances.

The key elements of our Services are:

  • To use app based notifications and email messaging to engage with the user and advise them to shift their energy usage during equiwatt’s energy events - equivents.
  • To guide the user on how to participate in equivents manually via their compatible smart meter.
  • To guide the user on how to automate their participation in equivents by providing instructions on how to pair their appliance or devices to equiwatt using compatible smart devices and or other integrations.
  • To use third-party energy monitoring tools such as smart plugs and power/current sensing functionality for the purpose of monitoring energy usage remotely to verify participation in equivents and compliance with demand-side response events and reward users accordingly.
  • To reward users who participate in the program with points that can be exchanged for a range of rewards such as eGift cards, donations to charity and entering prize draws.
  • To notify users about new features, recommendations and energy insights via email and in app notifications.
