In 2006 less than 10 percent of U.S. electric service points were equipped with advanced meters and less than 20 percent of distribution feeders were managed with digital automation technology, according the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Forecasting rapid adoption, the Department of Energy's (DOE's) "Grid 2030: A National Vision for Electricity's Second 100 Years" suggests nearly all electricity consumers will be able to customize their energy supplies to suit individual behaviors and needs. The adoption of advanced metering and smart grid technologies is moving rapidly across the nation, and in a February 2010 issue brief, the Edison Foundation estimated that nearly 60 million smart meters will be installed and operable by 2019.
