Since this work is hard real-time related I don't see how that effects most appliances or energy controls. Hard RT usual consists of short deterministic interrupt, timer response. Most appliances or energy control systems can wait seconds before switching. Hard real time systems are usually control systems that require response times of less than 500 usecs, like avionics control, motor control, industrial control, etc.
Many of these systems no longer require hard RT due to algorithms being implemented in FPGA hardware. Cheap motor control still need some deterministic response to to update the PID calculations.
