"The Smart Grid will mark a total transformation of the industry’s operating model—the first major architectural change since alternating current became the dominant system after the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893. As the industry adjusts to these technology and paradigm shifts, its viability requires that we change its financial and regulatory footings."
