EDP has entered into an agreement with Airbnb to offer special conditions to Airbnb hosts in Portugal for the purchase of edp re:dy. Airbnb hosts signing up to edp re:dy can benefit from a deal with no monthly payments for the first twelve months. Register at energia.edp.pt/redy or call 808 914 372 providing your Airbnb ID.

edp re:dy, in addition to the facilities and benefits it offers to the general public, has specific extra benefits available to Airbnb hosts:
- Monitoring of energy consumption by guests for cost control;
- Guaranteed safety and efficiency for your home, with all devices switched off remotely when the guests depart;
- Guarantee of a more sophisticated home with a wider range of features offered to guests;

The edp re:dy system enables customers to manage, monitor and optimize their homes, energy and appliances, wherever and whenever they wish.
Customers who want to know more about edp re:dy and find out what a smart home would be like can test this smart energy management system for free. Just download the demo app - edp re:dy smartphone - and share with your friends to obtain an access code.

The purchase price of the system is €102 with a monthly charge of €3.90, waived for the first 12 months.

This partnership is being offered as EDP is increasingly engaged in the design of the EDP Smart Home. In addition to the edp re:dy smart energy monitoring and management system, customers can still produce their own energy through solar power systems and adopt electric mobility with exclusive advantages for car charging.

Airbnb is an economic tool for hosts using their own homes - usually their main outgoing - to share space and generate extra income to pay their bills.

According to Airbnb's economic impact study, 96% of hosts use environmentally friendly practices when offering their homes for rent. This partnership seeks to support Portuguese hosts in improving their efficient use of resources in an environmentally-friendly way, which is a key feature of the Airbnb community.
