GE and Google: plug into the smart grid

the utility companies will run your lives into enslavement - they will control your habitat and livlihood soon.

Enslavement is correct....No one can even see it though.....

These people are crooks. Beware of big business!

They will tell you all the good about something new but will ALWAYS fail to tell you the bad and possible power they will gain over the people.

Business indeed. But... we are facing a bigger problem about the environment changes. That really threats our lives, especially for those people in 'under-developed countries'. If this is a business, I will accept it because I want the earth recovering from our destruction. The smart grid seems to help reduce the power consumption. Most importantly, everyone will be aware of how much you had spent on power consumption, not at the moment you got the bill.

Like I said. They will tell you all the supposed "good" to come from it like you just did but you fail to see the down side to this.




1. The global warming scam has been exposed for what it is. A SCAM

2. We're not destroying the earth just over exploiting it. Look's to me that you wish to support a corporation that does most of the damage.

3. The smart grid will do nothing to "curb" peoples power consumption and will possibly make things more expensive.

Try to debunk that.

Yes but this meter is what a majority of the public is lazy and will not do that htis will actually show them when they use it how much they use and the cost. This is great technology and will do alot of good. also you do not have to pay for that device the power company will provide it to you.

I used GE Healthcare solutions on an everyday basis at the lab and I have to admit that they are good ;) I don't get why GE does not advertize about what it does in France ;)

You have it correct. Realtime price signals will make permanent change in behaviour.
Without price signals this is all but a fad or bubble 3.0

Good work Google and GE, so when will this be coming to Australia?
