Poupawatt | AI-powered Virtual energy manager for households

In partnership with Deco Proteste (the main Portuguese Consumer Association), Watt-IS has launched the Poupawatt service, a virtual energy manager that, through the application of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, helps Portuguese consumers to be more energy efficient and save on their energy bill.

This service incorporates several Data Analytics modules, creating a platform of tailored energy advice focused on the residential sector, which not only allows users to know where (in which appliances) they are using electricity but also advises them with personalized energy efficiency measures, such as replacing inefficient appliances, changing the tariff or contracted power, or proposing an optimized dimensioning for a photovoltaic solar solution.

Supporting the Poupawatt service and many other applications, WIS-Connector is a low-cost IoT device developed in-house by Watt-IS, which connects with the smart meters installed by the DSO, collecting in (almost) real time all relevant variables on the consumption (and export) of energy in a given facility.
