Google PowerMeter Partners With Usage Monitoring Device TED 5000
Today Google has announced its first device partner for the Google PowerMeter. This is big news as now anyone can choose to enable their house to be monitored through Google PowerMeter whereas before now, consumers had to depend on their electric technology provider to partner with Google PowerMeter. While the price tag for the cheapest version is at $200, one could justify the cost if they use it to reduce their monthly electric bill. Many should be able to get the device to pay for itself within a year!
The TED 5000 from Energy Inc. is an energy monitor that measures electricity usage in real-time (TED stands for “The Energy Detective”). As of today, we’re pleased to announce that anyone in North America can purchase and install the TED 5000 and see personal home energy data using our free software tool, Google PowerMeter, from anywhere you can access the web including through iGoogle for mobile phones. (If you already have a TED 5000, you can download a free firmware upgrade to enable this functionality.)
