Energy Data Hubs for Democratisation of the Consumer

Historically, consumers' only knowledge of their energy usage has been through their paper bill from their energy supplier. According to statistics, only 11% of consumers understand their bill.

Digital transformation is setting a precedent. Globally, it is estimated that since 2014, investments in digital electricity infrastructure and software are growing at an annual rate of 20%.

This paradigm shift pursues a democratic, transparent and neutral electricity market in which all parties involved (production, distribution, commercialisation, other agents involved and, above all, consumers and organisations) speak the same language and form part of a more open and competitive energy nucleus.

The advent of data platforms such as Energy Data Hubs is revolutionising the consumer's role in the energy transition. One of the tools that are already a reality and enable this transition of the energy market is the "data hubs" or neutral platforms that allow users to have digital control of their own energy consumption and generation data.
