#smartbuildings & home technologies that help with flexible electricity usage can be prioritize by:
Fit &
Ability to Promote Mass Deployment

Many policies & utilies recognize the need for flexible #smartbuilding technologies, but are inhibited by barriers of pilots to increase usage & trust with voice assistants aka 'Alexa'
@Guidehouse identified lack of education/awareness within workforces & info to support this education
Also, people are hesistant to share personal info - and concerns for long-term privacy of data
Developing an easy info plan for early transitioners into #smartbuildings will be key to transition
In addition to these areas of research, utilities & companies need to build trust via #BehavioralScience in both message & deployment.
Further, these companies need consider an actionable transition into #smartbuilding & homes - steps not leaps.
