•  A standardized data format for energy usage information with download/automated transfer at direction of consumer

•  Broadly supported by the Government, Utilities, Entrepreneurs, Third Parties

•  Unleashes innovation resulting in energy efficiency apps and services never possible before


White House Inspired -‐ Industry Led

2011 – White House challenged industry to proac#vely engage consumers in the management of their energy usage. 2012 – Industry responded with commitment to provide access to usage through the Green Bu8on Standard 2013 – 30 Million (and growing) residen#al consumers have access to their energy usage informa#on

What shall I do?

Here is what I’ll plan to use in future

How much did I use?

Do I know prices for

energy use?

Measured in units that I understand

I may need help from third par#es that I trust

What mo#vates me to think about energy?

EPA Home Energy Yards#ck with Green Bu8on



Example use case: solar PV proposal Courtesy of Ma8 Theall, Green Bu8on Presiden#al Innova#on Fellow (DOE)

“Solar companies are also eager for consumer data because understanding a homeowner's electricity use is key to the sales process.” – San Jose Mercury News

16,398 x 20yrs = 327,960 kWh @ 0.35 = $114,786 Based on Ma8’s Green

Bu8on Data: More than 2X Higher Than EsBmated!

PV quote based on state average annual electricity consumpBon (Green Bu8on

data not available yet)

Actuals/month 16398/12 = 1366.50 kWh/month $2,774.04/12 = $231.17/month

Es#mated 600 kWh/month $118/month

C&I customers

•  Verify DR & EE program eligibility

•  Higher data quality

U#li#es

•  Fast and accurate DR se8lements

•  Easier vendor integra#on efforts

Energy Mgt Providers

•  Scalable to 1,000’s of u#li#es

•  More partnering opportuni#es




U#lity Implementa#ons •  Example: San Diego Gas and Electric

•  Green Bu8on Download My Data launched December 2011

•  13 months of data •  Green Bu8on Connect My Data launched December 2012

•  20 third party partners in various stages of implementa#on



Administra#on Privacy Blueprint •  Guides efforts to give users more

control over the use of their personal informa#on and help businesses maintain consumer trust.

•  Recommends convening stakeholders to develop and implement enforceable privacy policies based on the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights

•  In the energy u#lity sector, the Federal Smart Grid Task Force (led by Dept. of Energy) is leading privacy efforts. –  DOE Voluntary Code of Conduct

process



Consumer Privacy Seal •  Third party access to consumer energy data enables a wide range

of benefits, but also raises legi#mate concerns •  Responsible companies that provide exci#ng new products and

services such as home security, smart appliances, remote home management will generate posi#ve consumer interest and help advance consumer engagement with energy management, demand response and smart meters.

•  It is essen#al that a flexible framework exists that ensures consumer privacy protec#ons are in place and that responsible businesses can responsibly access the data needed to serve consumers.

•  Risk to u#li#es, consumers if inadequate process for obtaining consumer permission

•  Risk to consumer engagement and innova#on if consent process is burdensome and ineffec#ve

Green Bu8on and OData OData provides a way to encapsulate domain specific informaBon within the Pubish/Subscribe pa8erns of Atom Publishing. •  OData is a standardized protocol for crea#ng and consuming data APIs.

•  OData builds on core protocols like HTTP and commonly accepted methodologies like REST.

Green Bu8on uses this approach to place Energy Usage InformaBon within Atom streams. •  The Green Bu8on resources are contained within the Atom <content> tags

•  Rela#onships between Green Bu8on resources are contained within the Atom <link> tags.
