Smart metering home applications

= Scenario = Smart Home with advanced sensors measuring power
 * all houses in Norway will have smart metering capabilities by 2016, allowing for 1/15min monitoring of power consumption
 * the main power consumers (in the home) will get steering control for on/off - delayed start

Outcome:
 * business model
 * recommender system

= Technologies =
 * comparison of smart home systems and standards
 * introduction into the power prices in NorPool (Nordic Power Market) - for following the power prices
 * identification of major power consumers in the home
 * establish a model for "power consumption" of users in a home -
 * a business for (a) house owners: energy variation of houses and (b) power providers: savings due to smart home monitoring
 * delayed start of heat pump by 15 min, 30 min, 1h 3h

= Contacts =
 * Akershus Energi (through Helge Godø)
 * NextGenTel (Bergen)
 * Lyse Tele (Stavanger)
 * SimLink (TRondheim) - SIM card with WLAN beacon for home appliances
