There are different ways value streams can reach consumers and it also depends on what portion of the grid you’re providing value to.

When you have the consumer that has the app looking for ways to save money, it’s up to us to put it in front of them.

Wolfgang Kirsch, CEO, Shelly Group

We know the consumer starts with two smart devices and continues to buy two more each year.

If it’s not hurting, no one will change. If the bill is significant, the behavior changes completely.

Meghan McConomy, Senior Director, Consumer Brand Strategy, NRG Energy

We developed products that were easy to understand, time of use products that customers can really understand and take action…that was a way to marry savings and convenience.

Innovation in the market. It continues to evolve so what kind of plans and tools are we giving to our customers? We’re continuing to innovate around offerings so customers can have options.

Poonam Narang (Dsouza), Vice President - Product Management, Schneider Electric

At the end of the day, the power that we need for the growth in demand, the energy transition needs to be accelerated. It’s important as an industry we work collaboratively to accelerate growth.

The focus is reducing the energy bill. In an ideal state, I’d like to attach a smart “Greta Thunberg” to my house - I don’t necessarily think we’re far from that.

Michael Siemann, PhD, Distinguished Engineer, Resideo

Moving energy from peak hours to off peak helps reduce strain from the energy grid. Expecting customers to do everything on their end is not realistic.

We need innovation in the market, the market continues to evolve, what kind of plans are we giving customers.
