- The Smart Grid Wants You!
- From
- Denis Du Bois
The smart grid wants you! What's in it for business owners who connect their buildings with the smart grid? Why is it important to the smart grid for buildings to integrate with it? What's the value of the trillions of dollars in up-front investment for the people who are paying for the smart grid -- utility customers and taxpayers?
Denis Du Bois analyzes the smart grid from these three perspectives -- connecting the dots with insightful interviews with people who are making the smart grid vision a reality.
Interviews with:
Anto Budiardjo, Founder of GridWeek and ConnectivityWeek, CEO of Clasma Events.
Jack McGowan, Gridwise Architecture Council Chairman Emeritus, CEO of Energy Control.
Great program to pair with analysis of the energy bill and climate legislation pending in Congress, or coverage of local smart meter roll-outs.
Podcast available for your web site or iTunes feed.
