In response to this important and interesting article, and integrating other of your your articles, I wrote the EWPC article “Huge States’ Costs as Utilities are Unable to Cross the Home Energy Management Chasm,” which can be read at the link http://bit.ly/8HHm23

The summary of my artcle says:

There is a consensus that only high tech firms are able to cross the Home Energy Management chasm. While utilities still “owned their markets,” by state regulatory fiat and while state governments take those very costly risks, it is very doubful that the consumer will be the king of home energy management, even if the Federal Communication Commission fully implements interoperability standards and open networks. Huge value destruction will remain in the power industry under the status quo.
