Abstract

Disclosed is a method and system to combine virtual reality techniques with a consumer's real-world space to identify ways to reduce energy consumption and reduce their attendant carbon footprint through an immersive energy assessment. An object is identified that is related to the consumption of energy in the consumer's real-world space, the system is able to present energy information that is specific to that object. This is in contrast to generic information such as an energy star rating. The specific energy information in one example is derived from data from many sources, including smart electric meters, smart appliances, smart home equipment, Internet of thing equipment, smart thermostats, smart speakers, and in-line watt meters.
