On a blustery December afternoon, you'll be able to go online from the office to turn up the thermostat at home from 52 degrees to a toasty 72 degrees.
You’ll have a dishwasher that bargain shops with you, turning on at 2 a.m. when energy costs are the lowest.
You’ll even be able to monitor your electrical bill every day through a digital display and set limits on how much you spend on electricity during a day.
Although we can’t do any of those things now, utility experts expect these scenarios to become a reality in the next generation of utility infrastructure.
