Are you interested in innovative ways to help people conserve energy usage at home? Do you know what consumes the most electricity in your home?

If a system or device were created to make energy use data accessible in the right way, it could have make a difference in the way people use energy in their households, particularly in this era of rising energy prices.

Can we create some interesting ambient devices with different means of representation and the granularity of information? Shall we design artifacts that could bring the information indoors, break the information into understandable parts, and make the information easy to read?
