As a long-time Sense user, this is great news for them!
However, their approach seems to (in my experience) completely fail to identify heat pump loads, and it hasn't yet picked up my EV charger (~month old, so I should definitely be more patient). At a grid scale, I'd think utilities would really want to see these sorts of loads, which likely dwarf a typical home's non-heating, non-ev electrical use entirely.
Haven't been a Linux daily driver in years, but I love that KDE continues to have such an impact.
Reminder that its built-in browser Konqueror debuted the KHTML rendering engine circa ~1999, which was then forked to become WebKit, and now (including all subsequent forks) powers something approaching 90% of web views globally. Pretty amazing!
Unfortunately, they (or at least mine) communicate by IR, which is not as stable as wires – two of my rooms have very intermittent response to my IR pucks.
