Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 128-129). The Energy Mobility Network is a mobile, networked energy production, consumption and sharing system that is designed to motivate users to be more aware of their energy consumption. In particular, the system provides a just-in-time message to the user before using the device, which allows the user to evaluate his/her needs and the cost of the device. Furthermore, the idea of minimizing electrical costs are extended into the social realm; the system creates a social network among users which allow social energy etiquettes to come into play. With these etiquettes, the system aims to use social means as a way to minimize the use of electricity. In the thesis, I discuss the goals and ideas developed that led to the creation of the network and the technical infrastructure behind the system. I will be going in depth with the prototyping, the pros and cons, as well as the multiple versions of the system that have been prototyped. Finally, I will discuss the future possibilities the Energy Mobility Network will bring when introduced to the general public. by Natalie Wen Yua Cheung.
