Sharing (energy data) is caring
You’re so close to a heat-pump-powered household. As an early participant (early bird gets the heat pump?) in this pilot program, the energy data sourced from your utility bills will be invaluable to future versions of this program. There’s just one more step to connect those data pieces, and we need your help.
Our friends at Arcadia, a leader in energy data software, built a platform that does all of the heavy lifting. No need for you to scan your bills, just a one-time set-up through Arcadia’s site and the Program Partners will be able to compare energy usage before and after heat pump installation.
Pro tip: If you receive gas and electricity from two different utilities, you’ll need to complete this step for both. Once you enter one account, the page will reload for you to complete the process again for your second utility. Establishing this account does not change anything about your utility account, how you get energy, or what rates you receive.
Why do we need your energy usage?
Because this program is a pilot, the partners (the City of Boulder, Boulder County, and Rewiring America) will use this data to analyze your energy usage with the heat pump compared to your usage before the heat pump. This will help us track impacts and improve future versions of the program. Your personal information will never be shared outside of these partners.
How we keep your information secure
When you integrate your utility account with Arcadia, we encrypt your account information AWS KMS (Amazon Web Services Key Management Services). Your data is encrypted both in transit and in storage, and any decryption of your account information would be logged and tracked to ensure security. View Rewiring America’s Privacy Policy.
