It’s a smart grid kinda Wednesday. Smart Grid News alerts us to the release of the Smart Grid Consumer Collaborative’s State of the Consumer Report. (Come back for some highlights later.) Oracle posted a YouTube videos with Guerry Waters, the company’s utilities guru. And Mashable takes a look at how social media and the smart grid could make cozy, ever-so-connected bedfellows.
And on the IT side of green, a cloudy forecast following Ballmer’s employee rattling rampage at Microsoft; Alcatel-Lucent works on more energy efficient mobile networks; and a look at how Autodesk is helping companies get to the root of sustainable product and facilities design.
