Data-driven comfort The Zero Energy House (ZEH) is an exemplar Open Source residential building in Auckland, New Zealand. The owners wanted a home that was warm, healthy, and low cost to live in. The story of the project was told through a website, videos, and live data with the aim of inspiring and enabling others to build better homes. The live performance data from the house’s control and monitoring system needed to be incorporated into the project’s website and other media. Many cloud-based data logging solutions were tested, but none provided the ability to flexibly use and share the data coming from the home. After a number of false starts, we finally have access to a platform that allows us to aggregate our data and use it as a tool to tell the story of how a modern home can look after its occupants.Zero Energy House
