As the Australian Energy Market Commission (AMEC) travels back to the future in a bid to redirect the floundering competitive roll-out of smart meters in Australia, it continues to amaze how far away Australia is from a genuinely smart, fit-for-purpose 21st century electricity grid.
Do Australia’s electricity industry insiders really want a ‘customer-centric’ future for energy? If they do, they need to fix the language of change as well as the policies and business models. And they need to do it fast, because they’re still struggling to manage the rapid proliferation of rooftop solar… and electric vehicles (EVs) will come on fast!
Homes and businesses now have unprecedented opportunities for generating, storing and optimising their electricity. But are legacy industry players and many policymakers still looking in the rear vision mirror for solutions?
Impact investor Kilara Capital tips $5.3M into Wattwatchers’ Series B investment round, backing the power of data to further propel the clean energy transition in the age of distributed energy resources, digitalisation and the ‘electrification of everything’.
Our energy and education package giveaway – worth over $7000 – has been awarded to Brentwood Secondary College in Victoria. Wattwatchers and software partner Solar Schools combined on the prize, and we still have lots of part-subsidised school packs available.
If you apply the KISS principle – keep it simple, stupid – to our energy future, then rooftop solar is simply amazing, electrification is the strategic inevitability, and electric vehicles will make it all come together even faster than many think! And yes, it’s more than OK to try this at home.
Traditionally, energy data that accurately breaks down how energy is used in our homes and businesses just hasn’t been readily available to energy innovators. To model concepts, to test ideas, to build solutions around. Wattwatchers is closing the gap for solution developers and researchers.
Australia’s ever-expanding healthcare services sector is overdue for a clean energy overhaul. Using Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and renewables can boost productivity while downsizing carbon footprint.
Georgia Kastrissios, our new Customer Success Manager, shares some of the ways we’re going all out in FY2022 to boost service and responsiveness to customers and installers.
