2016 Smart Energy Summit Contest Winner Announced

Parks Associates held its 7th annual Smart Energy Summit February 22-24 at in Austin, TX. At the annual conference, Parks Associates analysts, media, and industry leaders examined the expanding market for energy solutions and home controls and its impact on utilities, service providers, retailers, manufacturers, and consumers.

New research presented included:

  • Four percent of U.S. broadband households own solar panels, up from 2% in 2013.
  • Nearly 50% of U.S. broadband households plan to purchase a smart home device in the next twelve months.
  • 36% of consumers would participate in an energy program offering a free product.
  • 50% of U.S. broadband households have taken steps to reduce energy consumption, including adjusting thermostats, turning off unused devices, and using CFL or LED lightbulbs.

The event also hosted a social media contest to engage the audience before and during the event. Congratulations to this year’s contest winner, Emily Kemper from CLEAResult!
