Meet the Vue Home Energy Monitor
The Vue tracks your home's overall energy consumption and, with additional sensors, monitors specific appliances and circuits throughout your house. You'll be able to see exactly which circuits are drawing the most power, and if any appliances are responsible for high electricity bills.
Need to monitor more than 16 circuits? You can combine multiple Vues in the Emporia app for a unified view of your entire home's energy.
Vue users save an average of 10%+ on energy bills, but don't take our word for it.
★★★★★
This has already saved us 50% of the cost of buying it in two weeks. Another billing cycle and it will have paid for itself in savings. It even sent a notification when the oven was on for an abnormal amount of time.
★★★★★
We were spending $50+ in electricity a month to wash clothes. Now we don't even spend $15.00. At current prices the new washer will pay for itself in 3.5 years.
★★★★★
We reduced our energy consumption from nearly 60 kWh per day to just 26 kWh! This device has been incredibly useful, and I can't wait to purchase another one to support our DIY solar project we're in the procvess of starting this spring. Saved us $$$$ before end of first month.
★★★★★
The ability to see peak solar output is handy because you can run big usage items like clothes drier during peak solar to save money. The $200 to purchase will save you way more than that on your electric bill.
★★★★★
This thing is awesome. It shows me all my circuit's power usage in watts, amps, volts, and cost. [...] I saw that my water heater thermostat wasn't working properly and costing me a lot of money. I repaired it and I am saving 15% of the power it was using.
★★★★★
Can we give it 6 stars? I have to point out, I don't like playing around with electrical boxes. However, this was a easy install! The manual and video were straight forward and easy to understand... Hook up to wifi was a breeze, even with my router being 30 feet away in another building. Highly recommend this product!
What is home energy monitoring?
Imagine a device that tracks your home energy use every second and helps you manage it efficiently to save money.
That's exactly what the Emporia Vue 3 Home Energy Monitor offers.
Designed for homeowners who are new to the concept of energy monitoring, the Vue 3 is an innovative device that brings transparency, control and automation right to your fingertips.
Empower your home, optimize your energy use
Real-time Data
Unlike a monthly utility bill, the Vue breaks down usage by minute, hour and day. With the free mobile or web-based app, information about your energy consumption is always at your disposal.
Save Money
With easy-to-use graphs and real-time reporting, the Vue quickly helps you identify wasteful energy culprits. For the average homeowner, the Vue can save you 10% or more monthly on your energy bill.
Notifications
Stay informed and manage your energy consumption with real-time notifications from your Vue. The device offers customizable notifications, including reminders - never worry that you left the oven on again!
How the Vue works
Step 1: The Emporia Vue 3 is installed directly into your home's electrical panel, providing detailed monitoring of your energy consumption.
Step 2: Monitor your overall home usage with the Whole Home model or you can monitor specific rooms or appliances with the addition of up to 16 sensors.
Step 3: By adding these circuit level sensors you can identify energy hogs, see any unusual activity like a sump pump that is constantly running or even be notified if you left the oven on.
Step 4: If you have more than 16 breakers you want to monitor (in one panel or multiple), just add another Vue Home Energy Monitor manage it all in our convenient, free app.
Step 5: Configure settings in the Emporia Energy App to automate energy management for time of use, peak demand, excess solar, and rewards programs.
How many sensors do I need?
Monitor Only
The base Vue 3 model will track your systems main lines giving you a Total Usage (or Net) value seeing how much energy your home is using.
No additional 50A CT sensors are included in this kit to track individual circuit usage, but it provides the functionality needed to track your overall usage and leverage energy management features from the Emporia platform.
8 Sensors
This package provides you with 8x 50A CT sensors to track individual circuits within your electrical panel as well as your system mains.
The additional 50A CTs are helpful to track suspect circuit usage, high appliance loads and circuits of interest. This package is helpful if you're not concerned about every circuit within your panel, but focused on a select few branch circuits usage. Also helpful to monitor solar generation if present.
16 Sensors
This package provides the most complete measurement coverage available with a single Vue energy monitor.
It allows for up to 16x branch circuits to be monitored from the same panel that your Vue energy monitor is installed in. Use these sensors to track your solar generation, high appliance load or any circuits of interest.
