the wrong, which is but saying ... that he is wiser today than yesterday."

Subject: Knowledge Problem smart grid series

 

Hi all,

 

This week I'm writing a 5-part series of smart grid posts at
Knowledge Problem. So far parts 1 and 2 are up:

 

http://knowledgeproblem.com/2009/03/02/smart-grid-technology-economics-and-policy-part-1-of-5/

http://knowledgeproblem.com/2009/03/03/a-smart-grid-is-a-transactive-grid-part-2-of-5/

 

In particular, I think today's post is very useful, because
a lot of our audience does not naturally think of the electric power network as
transactive, so this explanation may be useful.

 

The topics of the remaining 3 will be

-end-use devices

-renewables interconnection

-smart grid policy, state, regional, federal

 

I hope you find these useful in communicating our messages
and vision to our various audiences. Please do be viral and send the links
along to anyone (and I mean anyone!) whom you think would enjoy it/benefit from
it. I know a couple of you are involved in today's Senate hearing, and this
series may be useful to the staffers there. And please do comment on them!

 

They are also cross-posted at The Energy Collective, which
if you aren't aware of, I recommend to you:

Thanks,

Lynne
