At Eon Next, it’s on us to make new energy work.
‘New Energy’ is an electricity grid which constantly balances
renewable electricity generation, storage and usage.
Personalisation is the way to make this work. Deepest understanding
of consumers will deliver experiences that balance convenience, practicality
and cost, by evolving the roles of efficiency technology (solar panels, batteries,
electric heating), energy tariff cost structures, software & automation, and
behaviour change.
Taking an example of charging an electric car at home. Households may
have the same car and annual mileage, but knowing different daily or weekly
mileage patterns, and if a customer has solar panels, could mean it’s better for
one customer to have a small cheaper off-peak time every day, or a longer
slightly more expensive off-peak time at weekends
