Home:Live comfortably through ecology.
Many households today are looking to save energy by purchasing solar panels and switching to energy-saving home appliances and AV devices. Eco-navigation systems are also gaining attention as a way to revolutionize energy savings at home. People are able to live a more efficient, ecologically sound life by using sensors and networking technologies to monitor and display energy consumption levels. These technologies also enable automated control-such as turning off air conditioners and lights when sensors read nobody is in a room-and low-cost, night time charging of storage batteries. Total control of all the energy consumed at home can be realized by linking with smart grids-next generation electricity networks-and networking home devices.
- Visualize environmental information at home.
- Optimally control energy consumption by networking home appliances.
- Automatically control lights and air conditioners using sensors.
- Provide information about environmental performance when customers purchase products.
Total household energy management
NEC networks energy consumption devices such as home appliances and water heaters by linking them using the Home Energy Management System (HEMS). We enable automated control in a range of areas, from home appliance power control to security monitoring. This helps people live a safe and comfortable life-especially important in aging societies-as well as reduce environmental impact by reducing energy consumption.
