Samsung SmartThings Energy, the energy efficiency technology company, announced it will expand its services through collaborations with leading companies in the clean energy and energy management fields. Particularly, it has partnered with Constellation, Logical Buildings, and Oracle Utilities in the United States.
Firstly, SmartThings is Samsung’s premier technology in IoT and connected living. As an energy company, it was launched in July, 2021 to allow users efficient energy management and cost savings. However, the company has a special focus on lowering customers’ carbon footprint.
Consequently, the partnership with Constellation will focus on sustainability; energy efficiency, allowing people to manage home energy use responsibly and easily when at home or away. Constellation is a Baltimore-based energy solutions provider, subsidiary of Exelon.
In addition, through the collaboration with Logical Buildings, users of SmartThings will be able to participate in ConED’s demand response program. Users will be able to access information on their personal energy use; then use the SmartThings Energy app to automate their devices to help them save energy and earn rewards.

These include energy home monitoring and individual device/disaggregated energy monitoring. Chanwoo Park, Executive Vice President and Head of IoT Business group at Samsung Electronics said he was proud of Samsung’s commitment to environmental sustainability and energy efficiency.
