The firm’s 360 View: Energy Management, Smart Home, & Energy Providers reports purchase intention rates have also doubled in the same time period. “Approximately 63% of the thermostats purchased in the last year were smart thermostats,” said Elizabeth Parks, SVP, Parks Associates. “It has proven to be a hero device for smart home sales, but perceptions of value and affordability are still a concern, as prices of smart thermostats vary considerably. Nest and ecobee have introduced lower cost models, but smart thermostats priced at $200 or more are still driving 43% of volume. The average price consumers paid for a smart thermostat is $175, which is 75% greater than the average price paid for all thermostats.”
