[QUOTE="binky, post: 524810, member: 490"] I effectively already do this to take advantage of solar electric. All my appliances have timers so I can set them to start at different times of the day if it's sunny or leave the washing until tomorrow. The smart grid will also suppossedly make better use of Wind and Solar generation which as we all know can be rather variable. What you will eventually get is appliances linked to the meter that will turn on to take advantage of cheaper leccy and help balance out the grid loading. The other fave is EV charging, so effectively all the car batteries can be used to balance out grid loading. All of which is great until the Russians or Chinese hack the computer system :D [/QUOTE]
