Comcast announced a partnership with Earth Networks’ WeatherBug Home optimization software that Comcast said, "will help Xfinity Home customers further reduce energy use and lower costs."

WeatherBug Home will provide the data and analytics that power Xfinity Home’s energy saving tool – EcoSaver – which learns the heating and cooling patterns of a home and makes automatic, incremental adjustments to the thermostat.

Earth Networks processes 25 terabytes of hyper-local, real-time, proprietary weather data daily for 20 million unique consumers.

Comcast also announced that Xfinity Home customers are also now able to add the following devices to their home automation system as part of the "Works with Xfinity Home" certification program: August Smart Lock, Chamberlain MyQ garage controller, Lutron Caséta wireless controller and dimmer, and Nest Learning Thermostat. Additional devices and functionality will join Xfinity Home in 2016.
