I've been asking this for a long time.

"What is 'Smart Grid' Technology, and how will it help. Minute by minute meters have been around for a long time. Charge more during peak demand, less during off hours. If that is all we are going to get, this isn't "SMART". Most people don't use much electricity during the peak hours at home, since they are already at work, school, etc.

THe "smart" transformers. How will they "save" electricty?

Bunch of nice "feel good", BS.
