Welcome to Smart devices and digital energy technology
This free, short course explains what smart devices are and how they support a better understanding of how and when we consume energy. Through a better understanding of our own energy use we can make informed decisions to reduce our energy use. This can save money and help reduce our environmental impact.
You might be:
- Looking to better understand how and when you are using energy at home.
- Considering ways to make your home more energy efficient and save money.
- Interested in new technologies, such as smart meters, and their role in the digital energy transition.
This course will deepen your understanding of the digital energy transition and support your own digital energy journey!
The course lasts for around 30 minutes. It is a self-paced, stand-alone course and part of the suite of 12 courses called Digital Energy Essentials. At the end of the course, we suggest some further learning materials for you to explore.
If you are unfamiliar with what digital energy is and the reasons behind moving towards digitising our production and consumption of energy, you may want to start with the first course What is the Digital Energy Transition? which explores what digital energy is and the reasons behind moving towards digitalising our production and consumption of energy.
This course is part of a suite of learning materials developed by the Every1 project which aims to enable and empower everyone’s engagement in the energy transition. You can find out more about the project here: https://every1.energy
