A Smarter Grid
The smart grid is the application and networking of technologies and strategies
to make our electricity and energy distribution systems more reliable, more
efficient, and less costly.

A Smarter GridThe smart grid empowers consumers to actively manage their energy use, and
allows the optimal integration and use of conservation and renewable energy
resources to reduce fossil fuel reliance and greenhouse gas emissions.

Implementation FactorsThe Electrical Power Research Institute estimates that the implementation of smart-grid advances could reduce electricity usage by more than 4 percent by 2030, resulting in cost savings of $20.4 billion for U.S. businesses and residents.
In October 2009 about 100 private firms, utilities, manufacturers, municipalities and other partners received the Smart Grid Investment Grants from the U.S. Department of Energy.
