Smart meters don’t solve this problem, so let’s talk about how to build it into applications.
Imagine your smartphone has a relationship to the smart meter in your home. We have all seen these apps. The thermostat is displayed on your phone, and you adjust the temperature based on when you plan on coming back to the house, etc.
Right now the app is very simplistic and just shows the adjustment. However, nowhere in the demonstrations I have seen is the cause and effect really displayed.
