Future Vision
The market for a reliable U-Value Measurement System is substantial in just meeting the
needs of existing Energy Auditing and Facility Management contractors, alliance
partners and customers. But the long-term opportunity is to introduce an affordable
permanent system providing real time energy-use data to all Alliant customers via their
log-in billing account. By introducing greenTEG technology, we make a positive step
toward realizing that opportunity.
Step one is to build on momentum created through demonstrations as described
above. Concurrently, the next step is to refine the software platform, so data output
can be integrated with existing Alliant software so that real-time U-Value data is
graphically illustrated to reveal energy loss and the associated costs along with options
to remedy.
Imagine online digital smart meters for each
customer that sends real-time messaging alerts
referencing performance anomalies with links to
options for improvements that are cross-referenced
with solution options along with models and
incentives for financing. This would position Alliant
Energy as a global technology leader and open
new avenues for revenue generation.
As more diverse models for generation and service delivery emerge, Alliant can then
build around a core capability of providing real-time U-Value sensor-output data
models that are universally recognized for accuracy and reliability
Both greenTEG and GreenPortal are dedicated to this mission and only seek to align
with existing Alliant Energy people and programs in a mutual effort to fulfill a vision for
sustainable energy practices that are already part of the culture of Alliant Energy.
To start, all that is needed is to arrange an effective demonstration date, time, and
venue. Then engage senior Alliant Energy decision makers to participate in a way that
can forward the vision presented in this conceptual proposal. To do that we need to
coordinate people, purpose and timing. It is hoped this conceptual proposal will be
reviewed and a follow up meeting scheduled to prepare for the proposed
demonstration in early 2018.
