“Have you ever heard of the term ‘Smart Meter’ ?”

Harris Poll, 2010

Utility companies across the United States are committing billions of dollars in projects to upgrade the electric grid and install new meters in homes and

businesses. Yet two-thirds of Americans have never heard the term smart grid (68%) and 63% have not heard of smart meter.

These are some of the results of The Harris Poll of 2,576 adults surveyed online between Jan. 18 and 25, 2010 by Harris Interactive.
