Subject: RE: [energyinterop] Energy Usage Feedback
Yes, I would think continuous, direct
feedback to the premises is essential for any smart interaction. Next day is
like driving looking only in your rear view mirror. However, if you see your
usage is up and it is expensive, you might walk around the house or check the
business to see what is going on and make changes before you exceed your
contracted amount or get some enormous bill. Larry From: Considine, Toby
(Campus Services IT) [mailto:Toby.Considine@unc.edu] One
of the other priorities under the smart grid is feedback to the premises The
actual efforts to solve this problem seem, to date, to be inward focused, i.e.,
how can we collect this info and send it back through our substations to our
CRMs. Personally, I think that something that looks like an oBIX watchpoint, or
an oBIX Trend Report internal to the building makes a lot more sense. But
if it must go back to the utility CRM, should Energy Interoperation include an
interaction to delver it back to the building? What if it is not available for
delivery until the next day? (The UCAIug calls this “near real
time”) tc "When
one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully
upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us."
