The ohmconnect sensor will show you the current OhmConnect status for the given OhmConnect ID.
OhmConnect monitors real-time conditions on the electricity grid. When dirty and unsustainable power plants turn on, our users receive a notification to save energy. By saving energy at that time, California does not have to turn on additional power plants and California's energy authorities pay you for that.
