Objective
To define and implement the functional and architectural specifications for the products that will be developed within the project (intelligent sockets, intelligent thermostats, energy meter gateway, interactive TV terminal, CATV gateway).
To define the interoperability profiles for load management and electro-appliances.
To optimise the existing telephone gateway, energy controller and remote configurator to allow full energy control and the reception of data files.
To develop new products: electric store heater, water heater, intelligent thermostat and intelligent socket.
To test and verify user acceptance in a real environment of the following functionalities: energy management, remote configuration, control and monitoring of the electro-appliances, user interface and external communications.
Products are to be developed with integrated EHS (European Home System) interfaces using the power line as a medium for the data transfer. These products will be configured and installed in two demo sites, one in Spain and one in Italy. The focus is to optimise the energy and load management as well as the comfort. For the first one an interface between utilities and the customer is developed to allow the utility to offer new services to the customer. In the second, a homogenous interactive television set-top box enables the client to configure his own system in a very user-friendly way. Additional communication products like PSTN gateways and CATV gateways will also permit a remote configuration and monitoring of the EHS functions by any external service provider.
