The ZigBee Alliance certified 19 products using the ZigBee Smart Energy public application profile.

The products are designed to provide services to help utility companies implement new home area networks for managing energy, help consumers improve their own energy efficiency and deliver multivendor product interoperability, said the ZigBee Alliance.

The following ZigBee Smart Energy products were tested to ensure they met the alliance's specifications:

  • Cellnet + Hunt - Focus Ax endpoint is a metering endpoint that provides two-way communication with the utility, meter and home area networks.
  • Ember - Smart Energy Application is a reference implementation of each of the device types, clusters and security functions enabling customization by device manufacturers to allow development and certification of their products.
  • Itron - OpenWay Centron electricity meters provide electricity measurement and support two-way communications between utilities and homes including home area networks.
  • Itron - OpenWay Gas Module measures natural gas consumption and supports two-way communication with the Itron OpenWay Centron meter for meter reading and remote programming.
  • Tendril - Outlet is a three-prong electrical outlet for use in a standard home outlet that monitors and controls the energy consumption of an electrical appliance while offering Internet or in home display tracking.
  • Alektrona - Z-Aperture is a broadband energy service portal providing Internet connectivity for demand-response/load-control, sub-metering and other energy management services.
  • Computime Limited - CTW200 is a thermostat that monitors, controls and displays energy consumption and rate information while supporting heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and two stage heat pumps.
  • Computime Limited - CTW300 is an in home display with a dot matrix screen for users to monitor energy rate and consumption information in residences.
  • Comverge - DCU offers functionality from individual addressing to adaptive algorithms and is compatible with air conditioning units, water heaters, pool pumps and other auxiliary appliances.
  • Comverge - SuperStat is a smart thermostat offering both utilities and end-users control that operates with HVAC systems and web based features.
  • Energate - Pioneer Z100 is a smart thermostat.
  • Greenbox Technology - Greenbox is a web-based interactive energy management platform enabling households to manage their energy and water usage.
  • LS Industrial Systems - LK Series Single-Phase and Poly-Phase Electric Meters are energy meters with integrated two-way communications.
  • National Technical Systems (NTS) - Smart Energy Test Harness is a reference application emulating ZigBee Smart Energy devices.
  • PRI - Home Energy Controller monitors and displays electricity and gas consumption from meters and provides cost information.
  • PRI - Single and Poly Phase Multi Rate Meters offer optional load control switches and power ratings.
  • Trilliant - SecureMesh Micro Access Portal is independent from the meter and can be embedded in an end-point device including thermostats, in home displays, appliance controllers or meters. It is also part of the Trilliant SecureMesh AMI network.
  • Wireless Glue Networks - GSF Smart Energy Device Simulator models and tests ZigBee Smart Energy devices on ZigBee PRO platforms.
