To everyone who installed a Sense monitor, explored their energy data, and made a few smart changes\u2014thank you. You helped build what Sense is today, and you\u2019re helping shape where we\u2019re going next.<\/p>\n
Today, we\u2019re sharing an important update and a look at what\u2019s ahead. We\u2019ll stop selling the Sense Monitor by December 31, 2025<\/b>. But, don\u2019t worry – we are continuing to support and improve the Sense app and will continue to support existing Sense monitors.<\/p>\n
In fact, the Sense app is now going to be available to a much larger set of customers.\u00a0 We are now embedding Sense directly into the next generation of smart meters and rolling out through utility partners across the country, and soon, around the world. These meters are expected to reach tens of millions of homes in the next few years.<\/p>\n
This approach means no extra hardware, no installs, and more people getting energy insights that make a difference.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t an easy decision to stop selling the hardware version of Sense. The Sense monitor is how many of you first discovered the power of real-time energy insights. It proved that better awareness could lead to better choices and real savings. But to make an even bigger impact, we are expanding to this much more scalable model.<\/p>\n
Our mission has always been to make energy efficiency simple, actionable, and accessible to everyone.<\/p>\n
A Change that opens doors<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
This focus on delivering the Sense experience through smart meters has a number of benefits.<\/p>\n
More access to energy data for more people<\/b>
\nUntil now, using Sense meant buying a monitor and setting it up. But not every household has the means or interest to do that. With Sense built into smart meters, we\u2019re breaking down those barriers.<\/p>\n
Better tools for grid reliability<\/b>
\nThe grid is under pressure. With Sense in the meter, utilities can see energy trends in real time, helping them better manage demand, avoid outages, and plan smarter infrastructure upgrades.<\/p>\n
Faster progress toward decarbonization<\/b>
\nClean energy is crucial, but using it wisely is just as important. Sense can help shift usage away from peak times, spot waste, and reduce unnecessary demand. These small choices, made at scale, can significantly lower carbon emissions across entire communities.<\/p>\n
If you own a Sense Monitor, you\u2019re still at the center of the experience.<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
This update is about expanding access, but it doesn\u2019t change our commitment to you.<\/p>\n
No matter how you connect to Sense, monitor or smart meter, the app stays at the heart of the experience.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re building new features to help you use energy more efficiently, manage costs, and understand the impact of your choices. Every update is designed to help you do more with the energy you already use.<\/p>\n
If you have a Sense monitor, you\u2019ll continue to get:<\/p>\n
Thank you for being part of the journey.<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
To our customers, partners, and supporters \u2013 you\u2019ve helped Sense grow from an idea into a meaningful contributor to solving our world\u2019s energy challenges. This next chapter is all about reaching more people, faster, and creating a more resilient and reliable grid for all of us.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re grateful for your support, and we\u2019re excited to keep building what\u2019s next, together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
