Sense Joins Itron\u2019s Expanding Ecosystem of Distributed Intelligence Partners<\/b><\/p>\n

Sense\u2019s Real-Time Home Intelligence<\/i>Application Leverages Itron\u2019s DI Platform to Transform the Relationship Between Utilities and Consumers<\/i><\/p>\n

LIBERTY LAKE, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nItron, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITRI), which is innovating the way utilities and cities manage energy and water, announced that Sense<\/a>, whose mission is to reduce global carbon emissions by making homes smarter and more efficient, has joined Itron\u2019s expanding ecosystem<\/a> of distributed intelligence (DI) partners. Through the collaboration, the Sense Home Analytics application will leverage Itron\u2019s proven, scalable DI platform to enable a new and innovative approach to improving grid resiliency and transforming the relationship between utilities and consumers<\/b>.\n<\/p>\n

\nSense provides consumers a real-time engaging view into energy use in their homes. Sense technology uses high-resolution waveform data to detect devices in the home based on their electrical signatures and also connects to other smart home devices for control and automation. Through Sense\u2019s mobile app, users can identify and track energy usage, get a better understanding of electricity costs and ultimately save money<\/b>. The technology can also be used to detect appliance failures and performance issues, alerting consumers about maintenance or replacement before it occurs. Utilities and cities can benefit by having engaged consumers who are better able to understand and manage energy use in their homes with significantly improved participation in utility driven programs to help achieve demand flexibility.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Sense application runs on Itron\u2019s DI-enabled smart meters and takes advantage of Itron\u2019s DataHub<\/a>, a secure, scalable, cloud-based platform that makes data streams easily available to third parties with consumer authorization. This will allow consumers to seamlessly utilize the Sense mobile app without needing to purchase additional hardware. To date, Itron has shipped more than 5 million DI-enabled meters integrated with Itron\u2019s DI platform.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTaking advantage of Itron\u2019s DI platform and DataHub, Sense and Itron are transforming the energy value chain by delivering predictive insights about homes, businesses and the grid to energy suppliers \u2013 while also strengthening the consumer relationship by providing true real-time visibility into what\u2019s happening in the home,\u201d said Don Reeves, senior vice president, Outcomes at Itron<\/b>. \u201cWe are excited to expand our DI ecosystem by collaborating with Sense and giving our customers access to new and innovative approaches to solving critical challenges facing the world\u2019s power grids and transforming utility consumer engagement.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWorking together, Sense and Itron can achieve our goal of making homes smarter and more efficient by providing real-time energy experiences to all consumers. Through this collaboration, we are ensuring that grid modernization investments offer immediate value to consumers by enabling meters with consumer-facing applications to manage household energy and demand, optimize cost savings and reduce carbon emissions,\u201d said Sense CEO Mike Phillips<\/b>. \u201cAt Sense, our focus is to empower our customers to care for their homes while contributing to a cleaner, more resilient future. Leveraging Itron\u2019s DI ecosystem, we can provide applications centered around a decarbonized future more rapidly than ever before.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nItron\u2019s robust DI platform allows innovators to build open, interoperable, value-driven applications on Itron\u2019s secure platform which evolve with market and consumer demands. The DI development program enables an ecosystem of third-party developers to ensure a greater selection of applications to meet utility needs today and into the future. These applications are available via the Itron Enterprise Application Center, which features an increasingly diverse portfolio of Itron and third-party applications that connect to Itron’s industry-leading, IoT-based network. The Itron Enterprise Application Center is the operational backbone for utility customers to manage applications for customers via a private, secure web portal.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Sense application will be available in the Itron Enterprise Application Center by the end of Q3 2023.\n<\/p>\n
