Re: At least they may get some use out of it that

Already have stuff like that in California. If you want a lower rate and can cut back when ask under power stages. Your bill goes down.

As usual it more in the "Control" department that they like. Both shutting off stuff and reading power meters. And charging you for it!

Love the bit about rural. Which leave a lot of the screemers that want high speed connection out in the boonies or non covere areas, still out in the cold. And kills one of the "major benifits" they love to bring up.

Actually if they would "Clean up" the grid would be better off than putting a layer of worthless tech on a broken road. Kind of like spraying tar or oil on a road with cracks and potholes. Looks nice but totaly non functional.
