REDUCING CARBON EMISSION BY IMPLEMENTING ENERGY MONITORING SOLUTION

Abstract

Carbon emission has become one of the top environmental issues in this century. Governments, companies, and private organizations have adopted many practical ways to reduce carbon emission. Customer behavior is one of the most effective approaches that can largely reduce carbon emission by giving awareness to users while they are consuming energy. In-home display, a device attached to the meters in residents' houses, shows the real time consumption of energy for users to be aware of how much they are consuming and how they can improve their behavior to reduce carbon emission while cutting their energy bill. This report is going to discuss the whole process of developing a new energy monitoring solution to improve users' behavior of energy consumption.
