Jan. 5, 2015: TXU Partnership to Provide Location-Based Adjustment for Smart Thermostat
EnergyHub Platform Provides Customers with Greater Control and Savings from Connected Thermostats
DALLAS — TXU Energy has announced a partnership with EnergyHub that gives its TXU iThermostat™ the added capability of location-based thermostat adjustments to enable automated energy savings and comfort.
With location-based controls, customers can program their thermostats to reduce HVAC system usage while they and their mobile devices are away, and to start up those systems as they move closer toward their homes and businesses. The settings can be customized to meet each customer’s preferences and can be set for multiple devices in the same household. Some other Internet-enabled thermostats are tied to one mobile device, reducing flexibility and potential savings opportunities.
