It’s 10 p.m. Do you know how much energy your kitchen appliances are using?
Using their line of smart home energy products, GE tracked five major sources of kitchen energy use in a typical American household for one month. We created a tool for exploring the results that was installed on large-format touchscreens at the 2011 Consumer Electronics show in Las Vegas.

The data utilized in this application comes from a sample household equipped with GE’s “Brillon” technology over one month’s time.
