Power Stoplight is a patent pending system that can help you reduce both your impact on the environment and your monthly electricity bills. Technology experts, environmentally minded individuals & cost-conscious families can all benefit, even without changing over their electricity service. Both positively and intuitively, Power Stoplight motivates people to get into the habit of running the dishwasher, doing the laundry, etc, at off-peak times to reduce peak loads on electricity grids. The Stoplight tells you when it's a good time to use electricity, saving you money and helping you help the environment. The Blue/Grey line indicator informs you when your power generation systems (solar and wind) would be most useful. Power Stoplight Mobile is the first software application for mobile phones that brings this technology and this type of information to consumers in North America. Power Stoplight brings you Smart Data that is intuitive & engaging and allows anyone to participate in Demand Response for its many benefits.
Across North America, power companies have created residential dynamic pricing programs for their environmental and monetary benefits. These prices are sometimes hard to follow for consumers, with energy costs constantly going up and down based on demand and supply. Power Stoplight's app formats and displays this data for consumers so they can easily see and understand when is the best time to use or generate electricity. The app helps track time of usage (TOU) programs as well, which are simpler to follow than dynamic pricing, but still can be fairly complex in certain utility markets. For select regions, the app also provides the newest available spot price data, day ahead figures, or a smart price figure, a prediction for that region's electricity services' final applicable prices, which is computed by Smart Power Devices' servers.
