2. The Research Investigate smart appliances and smart meters
Examine the behavior patterns of residents
Survey (1-20 questions)
Understand the processes that manage electrical usage

3. Purpose
To find out if usage of a smart appliances contributes to solving California’s energy infrastructure problem
Determine the effectiveness of smart meters specifically in raising energy consciousness and diminishing electrical costs

8. Sample Survey Result - I

9. Sample Survey Result - II

10. Conclusions Conducted residents save energy through:
Fluorescent light bulbs
Proper refrigerator settings
However, two important factors that stifle the energy efficiency in Southern California
Lack of smart appliances (Ex: use of outdated refrigerator model)
Inadequate energy consciousness (Ex: vampire power )
