The Energy InfoUse weblog shares perspective and events which we find fascinating and important.

InfoUse at Washington DC Clean Economy Summit

With a palpable optimism, and a vibrant ecosystem of participants from a variety of fields, the January 2011 Clean Economy Network Summit in Washington DC was a historic event.
Reviewing the TED: Consumer Home Electricity Use Monitoring

When we buy things, we are familiar with the same process. Whether we buy groceries, a night at the movies, gas for the car, holiday gifts, or some help with our taxes - we gather information about what we want to buy and we weigh our desire for the good or the service with the amount it will cost us. Imagine buying something and having no idea how much it would cost - or no idea about how much we were buying. We would never do that, right?
