grid interactive buildings

DOE says 10 grid interactive building projects will participate in a $61 million, five-year demonstration. A DOE study says by 2030, grid-interactive buildings could save up to $18 billion/year in power system costs and cut 80 million tons of carbon emissions annually. This totals more than the annual emissions of 50 medium-sized coal plants or 17 million cars.
