DOE Invests in Smart Grid Projects

摘要

The obama administration has made investment in new energy technologies—renewable and otherwise—the cornerstone of its strategy for reviving the national economy. Smart grid investment is a major component of that investment. Along those lines, in November, the U.S. Department of Energy announced more than $19 million in grants for five projects. Private investment will be about $11 million, bringing the overall total investment to more than $30 million.
