Presently power distribution companies implement various decentralized systems that require human control interface. These systems are historically susceptible to inefficiencies, failures and human error as seen in recent years. The growing consensus among our elected leaders to put our country on a path to energy

independence demands a more intelligent power distribution grid in addition to traditional green initiatives. A smart power distribution grid will allow consumers to better utilize small scale generation techniques and will help provide

a more economically viable solution.
