**Notes:**
NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK

The digital information explosion continues. Ccompanies are collecting terabytes, individuals are collecting gigabytes. Storage prices continue to decline. We’re still in the midst of seeing audio, video and photos shift to digital. And that information is becoming smarter with more and more metadata.

The Internet and the Web have made access to information easier than ever before. There are hundreds of millions of web pages out there. This stage is what some are describing as the end of history. Yet it is hard to think of anyone who would say it is easy to find what they are looking for and we all still suffer from information overload.

We believe we have just scratched the surface on how to use software to act information on people’s behalfs. The old models of searching and organizing don’t work for  when you are dealing with gigabytes or terabytes of your own information, much less the entire Internet.

There is huge work to do to make it easier to find what you are looking for and at the same time filter what you’re not looking for. And once we have that information, we want to do something with it.

Execute and adapt – process and workflow
Share and communicate – collaboration and communication
See and imagine – visualization and interaction
Strategic and decide - Analytics and insight

Digital information explosion
Plummeting storage costs
Yet time has largely stood still in how we manage information – file systems, relational databases
Quantum leap in how we access, find, organize, relate, share and act on information
Metadata

## :  The Virtual Electric Infrastructure

**FACT:  **
**In the next 20 years, the U.S. will spend $450B on electric infrastructure, just to meet demand.**

***GridWise 1******st****** Law:***
**E ≡ MC****2**
**Markets + Communications + Control**
-  **≡** **Electric infrastructure**

**CHOICE:  Perpetuate a 20th Century solution, OR**
**Invest in a 21st Century GridWise system saving ratepayers $80B and increasing reliability.**

***GridWise 2nd Law:***
**The choice is easy because...**
**$ bits << $ iron**

## Demand Response Pilot Project 

- Internet

- Interval meter

- Building
- site

- EIS Host Server

- On-site
- Operator

**Web browser**

- Automation System (EMCS)

**Initial Results**

**Notes:**
Utility EIS are the most basic EIS. Their main purpose is to provide utility customers with easy access to their energy data. Some of the Utility EIS are provided by utility companies as optional services. Their basic functions are data acquisition, tabular and graphical visualization, and rate calculation and comparison.
