Abstract
A few years ago, former Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson characterized the U.S. electric grid, the system of physical and human systems linking generators to loads, as “third-world.” 1 More recently, others have claimed that smart grid technologies promise to “spur the kind of transformation the Internet has already brought to the way we live, work, play and learn.” [superscript 2]
