The 2024 Integrated Home Competition will assess small-load entries.

Eligible products include whole home energy management solutions, home appliances, plug load controls, window attachments, lighting and lighting controls, ceiling fans, and other connected home devices that deliver a positive consumer experience and provide load management capabilities. While larger loads within the home (e.g., HVAC and water heating) are not eligible for awards in 2024, the Competition will pivot its focus to those larger loads in 2025.

 


What You Win

Award winners receive credible third-party promotion and recognition through webinars, press releases to consumer and trade publications, a feature on the Integrated Home Competition website, speaking opportunities and presence at key industry events, and additional promotion by Competition Sponsors.
