Smart Grid - Surprising Support
I believe a smart grid is actually going to be funded! Why, because of this Pickens' Windmills Tilt Against Market Realities Wall Street Journal.
T. Boone Pickens has been doing a lot of politicing in favor of a smart grid and from the article, looks like he has been very successful! The smart grid is needed for his windmills. That has always been a weak area (somebody to push a smart grid), because the current stakeholders don't really care. The ones who do are the alternate energy people and for whatever reason have stayed out of this.
