IntegratedHome 400x275

September 7, 2022

The Integrated Home Competition has announced the 2022 award-winning products at the CEE Industry Partners Meeting.

The judges selected 17 innovative connected home devices that demonstrate the four tenets of the CEE Integrated Home Initiative: Energy Savings, Demand Flexibility, Consumer Amenity, and Security.

In 2022, the Competition evaluated and awarded entries in residential connected lighting, heating and cooling, thermostats, water heating, window attachments, electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), and an open category for other connected home devices.

The judging panel was comprised of individuals with expertise in usability, interoperability, energy-efficiency program administration, product installation, specific technology performance, sales, and design. Entries were demonstrated remotely or installed in-person at the UL Solutions facility in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The judges carefully considered the detailed product submission information and observed the entries’ operation and user interfaces. Winners were selected for their ability to elegantly embody the tenets of the CEE Integrated Home.
