Looking Ahead: The Next Chapter for Sense
sense.comAs a long-time Sense user, this is great news for them!
However, their approach seems to (in my experience) completely fail to identify heat pump loads, and it hasn't yet picked up my EV charger (~month old, so I should definitely be more patient). At a grid scale, I'd think utilities would really want to see these sorts of loads, which likely dwarf a typical home's non-heating, non-ev electrical use entirely.
I agree. It take quite a bit longer to initially detect things. Then it also miss identifies certain things. Apparently I have 11 refrigerators (I dont). Also it finally did pick up my EV charger yesterday after 5 weeks.
I hope they continue to support it. I originally bought it because I don’t trust Duke Energy. Now it will be in the meters owned by Duke. Seems like a perverse reversal.
