Sense VS Electricity Map

At Sense we make a home energy monitor that provides real-time appliance-level monitoring using machine learning. Hardware is indeed hard as everyone said it would be! https://sense.com. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

If you want to know exactly how much you are using, when, and approximately how much each device is pulling there are sensors that can help. Eg Https://sense.com/ There are a few others. If you are interested I recommend some googling and read reviews. Source: 10 months ago

Hi all, Wondering if you have any other recommendations or thoughts on the below. Use case: I have a solar array and want to track in one spot all the energy produced, energy imported, energy exported, and where energy is being used. Both of the following seem to do what I want with some nuances. I am looking at: 1) Sense [0], which identifies energy use patterns of different devices to determine what devices are... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

Https://sense.com/ try this guy out. I got one and it seems to work fairly well. I have a light fixture that’s wildly inefficient. Source: 11 months ago

I don’t see it mentioned here, but if you really wanted to know what is using power in her whole house, you could get a “Sense” energy monitor. It gets installed by you inside the main breaker panel and lets you see/learns what uses power and allows you to pinpoint large wasters. A little pricey up front, but could easily pay for itself.

Germany is absolutely not green, on https://app.electricitymaps.com/map you can see that it is always in the yellow, even when its wind production is maximum. Source: over 1 year ago

During the 2021-2022 winter french npp worked pretty much as usual, then both unplanned and regular maintenance requirement hit during spring, summer, and fall 2022. But for this winter 2022-2023 we are currently fine, we're exporting 10GW right now. And unless we have an abnormally cold end of January or February we will not require any import and will keep exporting a clean energy to our dirty neighbors. Source: over 1 year ago

That's also the method used in "real time" by Electricity Maps (https://app.electricitymaps.com/map). Uh, at the moment, German's emissions are over 6x the French emissions (261 vs 41 g/kWh)! What a success! Source: over 1 year ago

Could do better is right. We have ~36GW of installed wind capacity in UK, while Germany embarrasses us with 70GW! Source. Source: over 1 year ago
