FORESEE TM User-Centric Energy Automation
FORESEE™ is a home energy management system (HEMS) that provides a user centric energy automation solution for residential building occupants. Built upon advanced control and machine learning algorithms, FORESEE intelligently manages the home appliances and distributed energy resources (DERs) such as photovoltaics and battery storage in a home. Unlike existing HEMS in the market, FORESEE provides a tailored home automation solution for individual occupants by learning and adapting to their preferences on cost, comfort, convenience and carbon. FORESEE improves not only the energy efficiency of the home but also its capability to provide grid services such as demand response. Highly reliable demand response services are likely to be incentivized by utility companies, making FORESEE economically viable for most homes.
