Abstract
The subject technology provides for identifying a set of similar users. Energy usage data is retrieved for the set of similar users. Next, based at least on the retrieved energy usage data, a comparison of energy usage of each user in the set of similar users is performed. Based on the comparison of energy usage, at least one user is selected from the set of similar users to include in a campaign. A target for energy usage is then identified for the at least one user.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- identifying a set of similar users;
- retrieving energy usage data for the set of similar users;
- performing, based at least on the retrieved energy usage data, a comparison of energy usage of each user in the set of similar users;
- selecting, based on the comparison of energy usage, at least one user from the set of similar users to include in a campaign;
- and
- selecting a target for the at least one user.
A system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- a memory device including instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- identify a high energy user based on a comparison of energy usage of each user in a set of similar users;
- determine a target for the high energy user based on a rank of the high energy user among the set of similar users;
- and
- transmit to the high energy user a communication comprising the determined target.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- identify a set of similar users;
- identify a high energy user based on a comparison of energy usage of each user in the set of similar users;
- select, based on the comparison of energy usage, the high energy user to include in a campaign;
- determine a target for the high energy user based on a rank of the high energy user among the set of similar users;
- and
- transmit to the high energy user a communication comprising the determined target.
