ENERGY INSIGHTS
A method is disclosed. The method includes monitoring, by a security system, a security pattern of a building based on security data corresponding to the building. The method further includes monitoring, by the security system, an energy pattern of the building based on energy information corresponding to the building. The method further includes identifying, based on the security pattern and the energy pattern, a potential reduction in the energy pattern resulting from a change in at least one of the security pattern or the energy pattern. The method further includes identifying an insight comprising an action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern. The method further includes transmitting the insight to a device in communication with the security system.

identifying, based on the security pattern and the energy pattern, a potential reduction in the energy pattern resulting from a change in at least one of the security pattern or the energy pattern;
identifying an insight comprising an action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern; and
transmitting the insight to a device in communication with the security system.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising executing the action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern.
3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein executing the action is performed based on a setting of the security system.
4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the setting indicates executing the action is automatically performed by the security system.
5 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the setting indicates executing the action is in response to an input received at the device in communication with the security system.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the potential reduction further comprises calculating a projected value of the potential reduction in the energy pattern.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the insight to the device further comprises transmitting an instruction to the device to allow a user to perform the action.
8 . A system comprising:
a security device at a building to generate security data corresponding to the building;
an energy device to generate energy data corresponding to the building;
a processor; and
a memory that stores instruction executable by the processor to cause the system to:
monitor the security data from the security device to generate a security pattern;
monitor the energy data from the energy device to generate an energy pattern;
identify, based on the security pattern and the energy pattern, a potential reduction in the energy pattern resulting from a change in at least one of the security pattern or the energy pattern;
identify an insight comprising an action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern; and
provide the insight to a user device associated with the security system.
9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the instruction is further executable by the processor to execute the action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern.
10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the execution of the action is performed based on a setting of the security system.
11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the setting indicates the execution of the action is automatically performed by the security system.
12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the setting indicates the execution of the action is in response to input at the user device.
13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the identification of the potential reduction further comprises calculation of a projected value of the potential reduction in the energy pattern.
14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the provision of the insight to the user further comprises transmitting an instruction to the user device to allow a user to perform the action.
15 . An apparatus comprising:
a processor;
memory in communication with the processor; and
instruction stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
monitor a security pattern of a building based on security data corresponding to the building;
monitor an energy pattern of the building based on energy information corresponding to the building;
identify, based on the security pattern and the energy pattern, a potential reduction in the energy pattern resulting from a change in at least one of the security pattern or the energy pattern;
identify an insight comprising an action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern; and
transmit the insight to a device in communication with the security system.
16 . The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the instruction is further executable to perform the action to at least partially achieve the potential reduction in the energy pattern.
17 . The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the performance of the action is performed based on a setting of the security system.
18 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the setting indicates the performance of the action is automatic.
