Assignment:
Making the Smart Grid Smart ISO, a regional electricity company in New England, has launched an $18 million project in part because of an $8 million three-year federal grant. The project is designed to speed up the installation of 30 smart-grid devices covering every state in New England. The smart-grid devices will provide control room operators at ISO with enhanced tools to monitor and measure performance of the region’s electrical grid, allowing the company to improve its ability to detect and address problems on the system. System status information coming into ISO will increase from once every four seconds to 30 times per second. Would you invest in ISO if you had the chance? Why or why not? If you were awarded an $8 million three-year federal grant, what type of sustainable infrastructure would you create?
