EPRI- Analysis of Next Generation Home/Building Energy Management Systems

This project involves research into the next generation of home and building area network (HAN/BAN) energy management and control systems for residential and small commercial customer applications. To this end, the project will collect and incorporate research information on existing and documented installations with networked technologies from domestic and international research organizations, utilities, manufacturers, and distributors. In addition, the project team will identify a HAN/BAN system for a future field evaluation to assess the system’s effectiveness in implementing EE and DR measures.
