DOE will generate a publicly-accessible "crowd-sourced" map that discloses consumer access to electricity consumption data and the ability to share that data with third parties. This requires DOE to collect information about data access and sharing services offered to customers by electricity providers. EERE has developed an online questionnaire device that captures and publishes the necessary information as a series of web-based maps. DOE is requesting a 3-year approval for this information collection request.
DOE requests the emergency approval of this ICR due to the timely nature of the President’s recent request to “increase the pace of the implementation of energy conservation measures, and improve the results from its energy efficiency investments.” Earlier this year, a joint memo from the White House, DOE, USDA, DOI and NIST announced that DOE would undertake as part of the grid modernization initiatives the production of a “crowd-sourced” map to track progress on efforts to improve consumer access to and control of their energy usage data. The “crowd-sourced” map would enable Americans to take advantage of new tools and services to manage their energy use and save on their utility bills.
