Smart Grid Stimulus Applications: $2.85B and Counting [View article]
Never be too reliant on just one source of energy, food, water, income, etc.
If the utility can 'monitor' your energy use, they aren't too far off from having the ability to hit the switch and turn off energy to your loop.
The beauty of this smart energy movement is the flip side - micro energy plants (mills, turbines, arrays) that the homeowner can install which is off the 'smart grid' - true energy independence.
Let them tax the system you let them know about and gain true independence with the system they don't know you have.
