This device<span style="background-color: #FFFFFF"><span style="color: #111111"> allows users to manage their heating costs by adjusting the desired temperature. The CST, unlike other thermostats, boasts three </span></span>unique features: <span style="background-color: #FFFFFF"><span style="color: #111111">Heating Power Adjustment (HPA), Heating Problem Detection (HPD), and Heating Bill Awareness (HBA). These features enable users to manage and anticipate their heating bills effectively.&nbsp;The CST operates on the principle that once the desired indoor temperature is achieved, only small amounts of energy are needed to maintain it. It regulates not only the indoor temperature but also the radiator temperature, potentially reducing heating costs by up to 60%. Furthermore, it identifies and reports heating or insulation issues, prompting users to take corrective measures. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt"><span style="background-color: #FFFFFF"><span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif"><span style="color: #212529">The project will result in t</span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt"><span style="background-color: #FFFFFF"><span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif"><span style="color: #000000">he development and commercialization of the CALORIC Smart Thermostat (CST), and as a result enhance the promoters competitiveness.
