What is a HAN?
A Home Area Network (HAN) is a residential local
area network (LAN) for communication between
digital devices typically deployed in the home ,
usually a small number of computers and printers
and mobile computing devices.

How does it work?
The HAN can use ZigBee Wireless Communication protocol with a centralcontroller that communicates with appliances.
The central controller collects appliance information wirelessly and
presents the state of the household on a dashboard.

Why implement a HAN?
Show consumers their wasteful habits…
…and empower them with real-time data to save energy
Currently
With HAN Consumer can
get their energy usage
instantaneously and act
on their wasteful habits
Previously
Consumer serious
interest in energy
savings
Consumer had to wait
one month for their
energy bill

HANs create an opportunity for customers to engage inUtility’s Demand Response programs
Via the HAN, consumers are able to cycle back appliances during peak hours andalso turn off non-essential devices during peak hours. Consumers are now able to
shift appliance energy usage patterns over time.
As a result, home energy consumption is monitored and adjustedto achieve the desired level of energy and financial savings.
Customers Can:
“Set it and forget it”
Realize energy savings
and compare against
peers in their community
Establish a savings goal
and view progress towards
achieving that goal

The benefits of HAN technology are expansive
Consumers are
provided data and
metrics on:
• Hourly / weekly
usage
• Peer to peer
comparison
HANs provide real-
time information on:
• Detailed energy
usage information
by device
• Energy savings
• Temperature /
Weather
• Curtailment
messages from
Utilities
• Time of usepricing
HANs facilitate an
awareness of energy
cost and consumption
and make energy
conservation easy, fun,and engaging

Significant savings for each stakeholder include:
Utility GovernmentConsumer
• Reduce annual energy
usage and cost by 10 -15 %
• Remotely control
appliances / devices
• View energy usage and
percentage of total
consumption for each
appliance / device• Automatically reduce
energy usage of appliances
during peak hours
• Instantaneously view
energy usage instead of
waiting for next month’s bill
• Reduce peak demand
• Improve customer service
by providing load control
• Faster outage detection
• Include residential and
commercial customers in
DR programs
• Communicate withcustomers instantaneously
• Eliminate manual, on-site
meter readings
• Reduce the need to build
new power plants
• Reduce carbon footprint
• Reduce air pollution
• Decreased dependence on
foreign energy
• Preserve the environment

Implementation of HANs could result in some data-centeredchallenges

• Usage data

• Consumers can
operate in
