The Future of Home Energy: Importance of Smart Monitoring

Smart Energy Monitoring: Essential for the Future of Home Energy

Bills, bills, bills, they never end! And with the prices of everything seeming to rise, each time a new one arrives it brings with it a brief tightening of the chest? A gulp at least? That is, unless you’ve tried to swap out to a green energy home and are now reaping the benefits of renewable energy and the drastically reduced bills in this particularly wonderful world? You all know the spiel, renewable energy: an initial investment followed by long term savings, but hey, once you get to the long term savings part, there’s honestly nothing like it.

The Rising Cost of Bills and the Green Energy Solution

And to fully grasp all that, you’ve got to have a smart energy monitoring system installed in your home. These handy devices give you real insight into how your home is procuring and using energy, but they’re not there just to give your daily affirmations of how much you’re saving while saving the planet, they’re actually a really useful way to figure out how to even better optimise your energy consumption!

Damn, did you leave the heater on on a perfectly warm day? You’ll know. Or maybe you’re not running the washing machine at the optimum time? Or maybe, if you’ve got a hybrid set up, you’re just interested to see how much you’re making use of your solar panels vs the grid? Or maybe you’re curious how much charge your solar battery is holding and whether it’s time for a tune up? In any case, a smart energy monitoring system will give you real time insight into the way your house is working, so you won’t get any crazy surprises at the end of the month. No gulping and tightening of the chest and all that, because we sure don’t need a medical bill on top of the energy ones!

Benefits of Live Energy Tracking

Sure, maybe a few years, or lets say decades, ago, you wouldn’t have had to worry so much about your energy consumption and keep such a stringent eye on things. Hey, a few decades ago, what are the chances you’d have considered renewable energy? But the world is changing and with energy prices so unpredictable these days, wouldn’t you rather try and get off the grid? Make your own rules when it comes to how to power your day to days?

Changing Times Call for Smart Solutions

Furthermore, just to sweeten up the whole deal, the UK government has a smart meter rollout programme so it is really easy to get one of these installed in your homes, it is, in fact, the government’s aim that most homes have them to meet the net zero goals by 2050. The widespread installation of smart metres across UK households is predicted to save around 5.6 billion in energy costs! Furthermore, if you have a smart meter with an active display in your household you can get updates on your energy consumption every half hour, and you can also top up your balance without leaving your home! SO gone are the days of having to trudge out in the cold to pay your energy bill when the heater randomly cuts off, and here are the days of staying warm, staying responsible and staying smart!

Government Support for Smart Meters

And don’t worry, it’s not too complicated. Nowadays, with easy to use apps, dashboards and displays, all of this stuff is very straightforward. It’s not something you’re going to have to wait for your grandkids to come and explain to you, it is however, something that they’ll be thanking you for, for generations to come, for taking a step in the right direction in terms of sustainability and the future of this planet.

Simplicity and Long-Term Impact

The truth is, having a smart energy monitoring system in your home also helps you lead a more mindful life.
