The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Southern Indiana Gas and Electric Company (SIGECO) to install and assess a residential energy monitoring and control system that would integrate internet-connected building loads, battery energy storage, and a grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system. The system would be installed at a two-building residential complex. Internet-connected smart devices that control electric loads (e.g. thermostats and water heaters) would be installed in 52 individual apartments. These devices would be connected to the monitoring and controls system and used to optimize cost/savings and peak load reduction across the residences.
