Last week my favorite southern city earned its nickname, “Hotlanta,” as the place was simply sizzling with one of the hottest topics these days: Smart Grid. It was the second stop in the six-cities-in-six-months tour that (in full disclosure) my company, Siemens, has been sponsoring.
The goal of this tour is to educate the folks that work in the power industry on one of the most complicated, but vitally important, technological advances the industry is grappling with these days. Smart grid is a short term, but it is long on implications, since the power grid literally connects generated power with buildings and homes far away.
