SUNNYVALE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bidgely, provider of a cloud-based customer empowerment and grid intelligence platform for utilities, today announced that it has been selected to receive a $900,000 matching grant from Energy Excelerator for a project with Hawaiian utilities. One of 17 grant recipients, Bidgely has been selected for its ability to provide an engaging consumer experience and generate energy insights that drive savings, while enabling utilities and customers to track both solar and grid electricity use simultaneously. Bidgely will use the funds to provide real-time energy monitoring and personalized, appliance-level recommendations for sustained behavioral change to thousands of Hawaiian households. By taking the guesswork out of saving money on energy, consumers know, for example, that for a particular month shifting their electric dryer usage will save them more than changing their air-conditioning setpoint.
