BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water

Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.

BeyWatch: Building EngergY WATCHer
Project Summary & Objectives
BeyWatch is a FP7-ICT-2007 project which covers ICT for environmental management and
energy efficiency. It proposes an energy-aware and user-centric solution, able to provide
intelligent energy monitoring/control and power demand balancing at home/building &
neighbour level.




The system will:
A)

Interconnect legacy professional/ consumer electronic devices with a new generation of
energy-aware white-goods, where multilevel hierarchic metering, control, and scheduling
will be applied (based on power demand, network conditions and personal preferences).

B)

Via an innovative hybrid photovoltaic/solar system, it will be able to produce hot water
and energy, which will be used at home or at peak hours fed to the electricity network.

The proposed system will function in a two layers hierarchy:


Micro-management plane: interactive monitor/control of all the devices in the home, and
RES power generation in order to achieve amortization of loads and peak suppression of
small-scale power consumption.



Medium-management plane: medium-level control and coordination of the energy
resources at larger geographical regions.
