I love this product called Energy Joule by Ambient. It's a little plug in device that tells you when peak consumption hours are... it lights green when energy is cheap and red when energy cost is at a premium. Users are given immediate feedback on their energy costs and can make descretionary decisions about what to turn on. Apparetly you can just plug it in and it automatically tunes in to the Ambient Infocast Network.
Unfortunately you have to be a customer of Consumer Powerline in order to purchase this little gizmo... and their major energy markets include New York, New England, the Mid-Atlantic region, Texas, California and Ontario. The company's clients range from medium to large energy users, and span the industrial, commercial, retail and institutional markets, including Stanley Tools, CB Richard Ellis, Cushman Wakefield, Sears Holdings Corporation , NYU Langone Medical Center, and the Massachusetts State Division of Capital Asset Management.
