Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for energy reduction are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving data from a thermostat, an HVAC system, and one or more temperature sensors associated with a property. The actions further include generating an HVAC performance model based on the received data from the thermostat, the HVAC system, and the one or more temperature sensors associated with the property. The actions further include receiving user data indicating user presence and user preferences. The actions further include identifying an energy penalty score. The actions further include receiving weather data. The actions further include creating an energy routine based on the HVAC performance model, the user data, the identified energy penalty score, and the received weather data. The actions further include transmitting an instruction including the energy routine to one or more devices.
