EcoHome Lab: PowerShaper development update

***

PowerShaper Monitor is our tool to allow visualisation of smart meter data, including time of use costing and carbon intensity. Back in the November 2024 session we showed some wireframe mockups of proposed improvements and got some really useful user feedback.
As a result of that feedback we've implemented a beta version of the improvements which is ready for wider testing, at this session we'll explain how to access the new interface and outline the next steps in our redesign.

========

Catch up on some of our previous sessions and presentations.

Unless there's a specific title to the session, it means we have no scheduled speaker and it will be an open session. We welcome contributions.

This is a CarbonCo-op (http://carbon.coop/) initiative working close together with OpenEnergyMonitor (https://openenergymonitor.org).

Topics will include:

• Home energy monitoring.

• House energy performance assessment

• Sensors - electricity, gas, temperature, humidity, air quality...

• User interfaces, dashboards

• Smart houses and automation

• Aggregation of data sources

• Taking the power back! - Making better use of the surplus power we generate

Who is it for?

• Anyone with skills in physical electronics, web development or programming who wants to use that knowledge to reduce energy and carbon!

• There will be open space for small groups to focus on adding new sensors or hacking the user interface, there will always be a 'newbies' group for people interested in finding out more.
