UTILITY MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

摘要

An Internet-based utility management system that presents estimated utility prices (405), usage terms (410), and a predicted load profile (415) to a customer. The estimated utility prices include predicted prices of a utility during certain future periods of time. The usage terms include a utility usage threshold for each certain future period of time below which the estimated price applies. The predicted load profile includes predicted utility usage of the customer for each certain future period of time and presented such that any variation between the usage terms and the predicted load profile is readily apparent.
