Crunching energy data
PlotWatt is one service that takes data from energy monitors, like Wattvision, and analyzes it to provide more detail on where power is being used. It can, for example, reliably recognize a refrigerator, air conditioner, and other large consumers. Having the information could prompt people to find ways to save, but it could also provide alerts when something is not working or needs tuning.
