Plugging into ivie, our official smart energy partner
At Lifeplus-Wahoo data drives everything we do. The strategies we make, the improvements we strive for and the power the riders push through every pedal stroke. Data is key to understanding the performance of our team, day in and day out.
In the same way, our official smart energy partner ivie is designed to help you understand the energy performance of your home. By using data from your home’s smart meter, the free ivie App and the ivie Bud in-home display (IHD) can help you track and reduce your home energy costs.
The ivie App
This free app connects to your smart meter and helps you break down where you’re using the most energy, so that you can make adjustments to your behaviour and save money.
Track where in the home you’re using the most energy
A single finishing time is no help in analysing cycling performance. It’s exactly the same with home energy costs. The ivie App’s clever Activity Insights can break down which categories are using the most energy – cooking, heating, lighting etc. – to help you identify where to make changes and start saving.
Predict your future energy bills
It’s all about data benchmarking 101 – track, measure, implement changes. By analysing your home energy use, the ivie app can predict how much energy you use by day, month and week. Even better, it will reward you on days where you use less energy than expected with ivie points!
Tailored energy-saving tips
We’re always looking to maximise our team’s performance, and ivie is the same. Using your home’s smart meter energy data, the ivie app can make personalised suggestions on how to reduce or improve your energy use. That might be replacing old appliances that are using more energy than they should, or easy swaps to LED lighting.
Earn rewards as you save energy
Small gains add up to big wins. When you use less energy than expected you earn ivie points, and you can swap these for raffle tickets for prizes in the ivie app. From Amazon vouchers to huge discounts on low-carbon technologies, victory is sweet!
The ivie Bud IHD
Make spot-on savings on the spot with this sleek home addition. The ivie Bud is your helpful energy hero that connects to your home’s smart meter, and also unlocks live energy data in the ivie App. See, understand and control how your home uses energy easier than ever with this beautifully designed touchscreen display. The ivie Bud shows you real-time energy information, including how much energy particular appliances are using.
