Synopsis:

Tens of millions of households will adopt smart energy solutions within the next few years. Multi-billion dollar smart grid initiatives have seeded developers, educated the public, and created the necessary networking standards for mass market adoption of home energy management systems.


The Home Area Network (HAN) ecosystem is starting to take shape. An emerging trend is for developers to offer hybrid HAN products and services that are not limited to energy management. Energy is the killer app for the HAN, called the “energyHAN,” and what we focus on in this report. With hundreds of competitors, multiple architectures and many distribution models, energyHAN products and services are diverse and rapidly evolving. 

Our research with 600+ early adopters in five continents found that they are very interested in saving energy costs and to a lesser but significant degree in being green.  In fact, if they could save up to 30% on their energy bill, they would be willing to spend an average of $150 on home energy equipment. 

Based on 820 interviews with consumers, home installers, vendors and suppliers, this report covers the global market for home energy management products and services. The key components of this report include the following:

  • Market segmentation, forces, drivers and market sizing for global, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of World

  • 5 year forecasts on smart energy households by region and by application (energy awareness, automation and control, and “sentient”)

  • 5 year unit and revenue forecasts for in-home energy displays, smart thermostats, load measuring/control devices, smart appliances, networking equipment (e.g. gateways/bridges)

  • 5 year forecasts by product segment including equipment, software and services
  • 5 year forecasts by technology including ZigBee, WiFi, Other RF and powerline
  • Key findings from two consumer surveys on their interest in home energy solutions, most likely products, pricing preferences, adoption drivers, and more…
  • In-depth analysis of 57 companies including home energy systems manufacturers, home energy platform providers, and AMI/MDM vendors.

ON World has been researching the smart home, energy sector, and related technologies since 2002 and has published dozens of reports on these subjects.
