Google PowerMeter


Though not strictly reference news, this is green information, and may prove useful for both staff and our customers.

Google has announced their first eight utility partners for their PowerMeter tool, a gadget "that can show consumers their personal electricity consumption right on a home computer" using new smart meters.  

Local utility provider JEA is among the group of initial partners working with Google on this project.  Currently it's available to a limited number of users, but if the pilot program is successful, the service will be expanded to more users next year.

Note:  Thanks Ed for sharing your electrical consumption with us!
