In some embodiments, an energy optimizer device includes a memory, one or more processors configured to execute one or more electronic games of energy saving and render the electronic games on a display. The energy optimizer device comprises hardware sensor or capturing device for obtaining equipment data from energy equipment associated with a user. A
virtual reality energy gamification application is executed to render badge level associated with a user's use of energy equipment, tips of energy saving, enrollment options of a demand management program, implementation of recommendation for upgrading of energy equipment, renewable resources registered, amount of energy waste consumed and / or ability of behavioral changes by the energy equipment to improve
energy performance of facility, and information about incentives / rebates. The energy optimizer device may communicate with other energy optimizer devices in a peer-to-peer manner and enable multiple users to play the electronic game together from respective energy optimizer devices.
