Thank you for your contest entry. We appreciate your willingness to share your ideas and also the time and effort you put into developing a proposal and submitting it to the contest.

We, the Judges, have strongly considered your proposal and found that it contained intriguing elements; however, we have chosen to not advance it to the next round of competition.

We encourage you to keep developing your idea. Transfer your proposal to the Proposal Workspace to re-open it, make edits, add collaborators, and even submit it into a future contest. You can do so by logging into your account, opening your proposal, selecting the Admin tab, and clicking “Move proposal”.

We welcome you to stay involved in the Climate CoLab community: support and comment on proposals that have been named Semi-Finalists and finalists, and even volunteer to join one those teams if you have relevant expertise. During the voting period, you can help select the contest’s Popular Choice Winner. The Climate CoLab will be opening more contests in the coming months, and you are welcome to submit your proposals to those contests as well.

Keep up the great work. We hope that by working together, we all can create solutions that wouldn’t otherwise be possible.

The power company can already tell who are their largest consumers, what they might not have us information in when they consume most of the power.
An ideal starting point would be in providing bulk metering at distribution boards and transformers with real time updates to a central location, this is a bootstrap method to developing a smart grid.
After the issues at bulk level have been addressed you can move to large consumers and then domestic users.
In Kenya the power company stopped roll out of prepaid meters when they noted a drop in consumption, which would suggest that they do not have the mandate or will to reduce wasteful power consumption.

Good idea but very little information about the implementation, challenges and innovative ways to address the expected challenges. Seemed to be very high level with little specific details
