winRG (short for "Winning Responsible Green") is a C# application designed to help companies promote energy-saving habits among their employees. This project was created as an entry for the JunctionX Hackathon held in Budapest.
Project Goal:
winRG aims to increase employee awareness of their energy consumption at work and motivate them to adopt energy-saving practices. This can lead to significant cost savings for companies and contribute to environmental sustainability.
Features:
- Energy Consumption Monitoring: Employees can track their individual and team energy consumption through computer usage statistics (e.g., monitor brightness, idle time).
- Gamification: Encourage friendly competition with gamified elements like leaderboards, challenges, and rewards for achieving energy-saving goals.
- Data Visualization: Track overall energy consumption trends through visually appealing charts and graphs.
- Company Insights: Gain valuable insights into company-wide energy usage patterns to identify potential areas for improvement.
Tech Stack:
- C#
- SQL Server (Database Management)
Target Users:
- Companies seeking to promote energy conservation and sustainability
- Employees who want to be more mindful of their energy consumption at work
Future Developments:
- Integration with smart office technology (e.g., smart lights, thermostats) for real-time data collection.
- Personalized recommendations for energy-saving practices based on individual usage patterns.
- Advanced analytics and reporting tools for companies.
This project represents a starting point for promoting energy-saving habits in the workplace. With further development, winRG can become a valuable tool for companies and their employees to contribute to a more sustainable future.
