**Calculation of estimate based on the type of residence, average number of thermostats selected, and the amount of your annual electricity bill, as well as the smart home service features selected in the savings calculator questionnaire. With regard to the solution for heating, this estimation is also based on the average rewards earned by customers who had participated in thirty (30) Hilo challenges during the winter season from December 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022. Rewards related to the solution for heating may vary, particularly based on the number of thermostats participating in Hilo challenges, the characteristics of the residence, consumption habits, the participation rate in Hilo challenges and the weather. With regard to the solution for electric vehicle charging, this estimation is based on data collected during a pilot project conducted during the winter season from December 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022. Rewards related to the solution for electric vehicle charging may vary, particularly based on the type of car, car use, recharging habits, and challenge participation rate. Based on the aforementioned, Hilo cannot guarantee that the participant will receive rewards. To learn more about the reward calculator, visit our Help Centre.
