Consumer Portal

Energate offers a secure, web-based solution which makes it easy for utilities to deploy a Consumer Portal that provides:

Real-time feedback
Dynamic rate information for consumers
Increased customer satisfaction
Support for utility Demand Response (DR) programs
Home Area Network (HAN) device support: smart thermostats and load control switches

The Consumer Portal empowers consumers to take action, to improve their energy efficiency and to shift usage to non-peak times.

Energate’s modular platform enables Utilities to configure the web portal in a variety of ways. For example, providing customers with a web-based application to program their thermostats, can be an attractive feature to assist in recruiting customers to the program. Over time, Utilities can expand the features and functionality as customers demand increasingly sophisticated tools to manage their energy use.
