Slickly done marketing fluff... with zero technical details and glossing over some MAJOR stuff.
Hope they get the funding they're looking for. Along with ramping up generation, we need to do something. I want to wash my clothes amd take a hot shower... when I want, not when some gov drone lets me.
What a moron.
You are promoting marketing fluff and he is a moron?
"Marketing fluff"? What data in that site do you disagree with and why?
The document you provided a link to is nothing more than a vision
statement. There are no specifics, plans or time-lines.
It is a document to encourage early investment.
Exactly what in the document do you refute and why? Be specific.
You can't refute opinion and marketing fluff until there is a real
product.
The SMART Grid is a vision and as of now it is an undefined and
unobtainable vision.
Completely correct.
Here, let's play a game!
"A Vision for Abatement of Foul-Smelling Flatulence"
- The product will solve the problem of foul smells from flatulence.
- The general public will no longer be afraid to let one go in the presence of others.
- In the future all flatulence will have a smell similar to butterflies and flowers on a mild, spring day.
- The product will be virtually tasteless and odorless, and will be low-cost.
- The product will have the additional affect of helping to induce World Peace.
Now what in this vision statement can be refuted? Answer: Nothing.
Since the product doesn't exist yet, none of the claims about it can be refuted. It is nothing more than a vison statement of what the "product" may accomplish. No data on how it will do so, just what it is hoped (hyped?) to do.
Any competent technical person understands the difference between a vision statement and a technical report with actual data. Or one would hope so.
