2013/09/04Energy@home smart washing machine lands in UK

The communication protocol proposed by the Energy@home Association is going to be used in UK Customer-Led Network Revolution (CLNR) project lead by British Gas.

Indesit Company’s Smart Aqualtis, a Zigbee Home Automation 1.2 fully compliant product, has been chosen by British Gas to test demand response and its customer acceptance.

When scheduling a wash, customers can see exactly how much it will cost them via an LCD screen display unit, and the machine will offer alternative options to save customers money, such as doing washing during off-peak hours when demand on the electricity network is lower.

Another proof of the completeness and robustness of the Energy@​home communication protocol proposal.
