Smart Grid

A smart grid is a distribution system that uses digital technology to eliminate wasted electricity and improve    reliability. Experts say that this grid in conjunction with ’smart meters’ will help consumers save energy and money   by providing efficiency advice, real-time price information, and coordinating household electronics and appliances  to turn on and off to take advantage of cheaper, off-peak, power.
