  • Smart Grid makes people utilize power better and helps combat the challenges posed by climate change. Smart Grid is the future and with renewable energy sources like wind power being used like never before, United States and other countries are realizing the advantages of a 'smart' system. Pacific Crest Transformers offers liquid-filled distribution transformers for various industry verticals. It has information on Smart Grid technology.

  • "Smart Grid" will allow the government to RATION our electricity.

    Us "nobodies" don't need the amount of electricity that Al Gore and John Edwards and Oprah Winfrey need in their luxurious mansions.

    The rationing will take the form of the electricity flowing to one particular home, if desired, being dialed down or cut off from the central location. The amount of electricity can be instantly monitored from that central location and the decision made in real time.

    I love Big Brother!!!!
