Supply/Demand Impact: Smart buildings can mitigate the risk of Time of Use costs by intelligently tracking power consumption throughout the day and moderating usage to fall within the allowable limits. Smart buildings can automatically regulate building heating and cooling systems as well as communicate with other buildings, power grids and ecosystem components to generate advanced societal benefits. Furthermore, building data can be leveraged to reduce electric lighting usage by adjusting shades to let in more natural light. Such lighting management has been proved to lower power usage dramatically.
