Abstract
One exemplary aspect concerns a system that includes a communications circuit, logic circuitry and an interface circuit working together to aggregate and provide feedback on indications of ongoing use of various assets such as in use in and around a residence. For each asset, the communications circuit and logic circuitry are used to receive and aggregate ongoing-use indications, access a profile indicating an asset-related lifecycle, and in response execute an algorithm to adjust a valuation score of the asset. The interface circuit may report on the ongoing use of said at least one of the plurality of disparate assets. In a more specific example, the valuation score is associated with one or more environmental-related components that appreciate and/or depreciate with ongoing use of the asset over portions of the lifecycle, and the assets may be residence-related such as including solar panels, IoTs, battery-assisted vehicles, and HVAC appliances.
