Guide to Energy Management Protocols
This report is a guide to ‘application layer’ communications protocols used for energy management, such as those used to facilitate intelligent efficiency and demand flexibility.
Standardisation for Smart Devices
This report highlights the most relevant standards in areas such as measurement of energy consumption of smart devices, and communication protocols for smart devices.
Interoperability
The objective of this study is to gain a better understanding on the issue of (a lack of) device interoperability and the resultant impact of this on Intelligent Efficiency and Demand Flexibility
Policy Brief – Digital technologies for motor systems
This Policy Brief shows the key findings of the EMSA report Classification of digitalisation technologies for electric motor driven systems.
Classification of digitalisation technologies for electric motor driven systems

Policy Brief – Digitalisation in electric motor driven systems
This Policy Brief summarises the key findings of a global survey on digitalisation in motor systems.
Are We Getting the Best Out of Smart Home Technologies? The Role of Usability
This joint report with the Users TCP investigates ‘usability’ issues associated with energy smart digital devices.
Policy Brief – Energy Applications within IoT and Digitalisation Strategies
Provides guiding principles to policy makers for the development of digitalisation strategies that incorporate demand flexibility and intelligent efficiency applications as key objectives.
Policy Brief – Roadmap for Consumer Devices to Participate in Demand Flexibility
This policy brief sets out a guide for the development of country roadmaps for consumer device demand flexibility.
Policy Brief – Policy Guidance for Energy Smart Digital Devices
Provides policy guidance for encouraging the development of consumer devices which are capable of ‘energy smart digital functionality’
Report on the EMSA Survey on digitalisation in electric motor driven systems
The report summarises the results of the EMSA Survey on the potential impact of digital technologies on electric motor driven systems in industrial companies.
Retrofitting Connectivity for Energy Benefits
This report examines the retrofit solutions on the market today to identify those that could be leveraged to achieve energy benefits in otherwise unconnected residential products.
Harnessing IoT for Energy Benefits
This report examines the landscape of residential IoT products and the functions within those products that can be leveraged to yield energy benefits. These functions include monitoring via on- board sensors and internal or external data feeds, and controls that can reside within or external to the product. We examine the extent to which products possess these functions today, the energy benefits products can achieve with those functions, and the appropriateness of adding additional functions to achieve additional energy benefits.
Total Energy Model V2.0 for Connected Devices
This report describes updates to the Total Energy Model that was developed by EDNA to estimate the ‘total energy use’ of connected devices, globally.
Roadmap for Consumer Devices to Participate in Demand Flexibility
The purpose of this report is to provide technical assistance and policy guidance to support national or regional government organisations, utilities, and/or energy regulatory bodies in
Energy Applications within IoT and Digitalisation Strategies
The purpose of this report is to provide guiding principles to policy makers for developing and implementing national/regional digitalisation and IoT strategies that emphasise energy
Policy Guidance for Smart, Energy-Saving Consumer Devices
This report provides considerations for policy makers to encourage ‘smart’ consumer devices which save energy and provide demand flexibility. It includes key findings for the prioritisation of consumer devices and policy recommendations.
Policy Brief – The Wasted Energy of Connected Devices
Connecting devices to the internet has profound implications for energy use, in three areas: Digitalisation, Wasted Energy and Upstream Consequences. This policy brief covers the second topic – Wasted Energy
Policy Brief – Upstream Consequences from Connected Devices
Connecting devices to the internet has profound implications for energy use, in three areas: Digitalisation, Wasted Energy and Upstream Consequences. This policy brief covers the third topic – Upstream Consequences. This policy brief is based on two EDNA reports: Total Energy Model for Connected Devices and Intelligent Efficiency for Data Centres & Wide Area Networks
