Electric Utilities and the HVAC Industry

Utilities are installing the necessary sophisticated communications networks required to ensure the full and beneficial coordination of utility needs with HVAC capabilities. The value created by these opportunities can be shared among the utility, the consumers and the HVAC industry through utility credits for the installation of HVAC and other home appliances that are both highly efficient and importantly, capable of smart decisions based upon utility signals and consumer engagement. The new codependency of utilities and the HVAC industry will provide improved service for consumers and help keep electric rates in line.
