The document discusses OpenEnergyMonitor.org, an open source project for energy monitoring. The project provides tools and resources to help transition to sustainable energy, including hardware schematics, code, tutorials, and a forum community. The open source model allows for collaboration, participation, contribution, and building upon others' work to solve problems faster. Examples are given of applications of the energy monitoring technology, like monitoring solar PV systems, heat pumps, bee hives, and more. The goal is to facilitate learning and empower people to create sustainable energy solutions.

Editor's Notes
- The system we have developed so far consists of both hardware, corresponding firmware and web-based software. Hardware wise the system consists of three main units: A wireless sensor transmitter node - emonTx A wireless graphical LCD display unit – emonGLCD And a web-connected base station – emonBase We currently use a NanodeRF but we also have a couple of other alternative boards which do the same job in testing. These units communicate via 433/868/912Mhz wireless using RFM12B wireless modules and are based on the JeeNode design and are Arduino compatible using an Atmega328 mirocontroller with an Arduino bootloader.
