More About This Product
An In-Home Display (IHD) under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program is a device designed to help households monitor and manage their energy usage. The VEU program, an initiative by the Victorian government, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help households and businesses save on energy bills.
Additional Features
- Connection to Electricity Meter: The IHD is typically connected to your home’s electricity meter, which measures electricity consumption in real-time. The smart meter sends data to the IHD, which then displays it on an application installed on your smartphone.
- Connecting Device with Smartphone: After the device is installed on your meter, it is paired with your smartphone via Bluetooth and an application is installed, providing you with real-time electricity usage data.
- Real-Time Monitoring: The IHD provides real-time information on electricity usage, including how much energy is being used at any given moment, historical usage patterns, and the cost of energy being consumed.
- Cost Savings: Monitoring energy use helps households identify high-usage periods or appliances, allowing them to adjust habits or invest in more energy-efficient solutions, ultimately reducing electricity bills.
- Empowerment and Control: IHDs empower users by giving them control over their energy usage. With detailed information at their fingertips, users can make informed decisions about how and when to use electricity.
- Enhanced Budgeting: For households on a budget, IHDs can help manage energy costs more effectively by providing insights into when and where energy is being used, allowing for more accurate budgeting and planning.
- Ease of Use: IHDs are generally designed to be user-friendly, with simple interfaces that make it easy for all household members to understand and use the information provided.
