The key benefit of the IoT in energy sector is an Operational Visibility and ways to reduce the energy consumption. By integrating smart devices and motion sensors, IoT devices can continuously monitor occupancy for a prolonged period of time, the system can then trigger notification to turn heating (or cooling) down to lower the power usage. The advanced capabilities of IoT applications is capable of learning the VIP preferences and adjusting to their comforting needs automatically over time or via weather feeds.
The system is embedded with IoT intelligence, can figure out the most energy efficient configurations automatically. This means that the controls will optimize the parameters such as fan and pump management thresholds, water temperature set point, scheduling, etc. and can quantify the benefits of various configurations to reduce the energy usage.
