LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Google Inc on Tuesday said it would use its software skills to help consumers track their home energy usage and thereby lower demand and the global warming emissions that come from producing electricity. The move is part of Google's effort to pump hundreds of millions of dollars into renewable energy, electricity-grid upgrades and other measures that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The company has already invested in several fledgling solar, wind and geothermal companies, as well as two "smart grid" companies. Smart grid describes a more efficient, less costly method of moving electricity along long-distance transmission lines to local power lines and end-users in homes and businesses.
On its official company blog, Google said it is developing a smart grid tool called Google PowerMeter that will show home energy consumption almost in real time on a user's computer. The company cited studies showing that access to home energy information typically saves between 5 percent and 15 percent on monthly electricity bills.
"It may not sound like much, but if half of America's households cut their energy demand by 10 percent, it would be the equivalent of taking eight million cars off the road," Google said.
Google PowerMeter is currently being tested by employees and is not yet available to the public. The company hopes to develop partnerships with utilities so it can roll PowerMeter out to consumers in the next few months, spokeswoman Niki Fenwick said.

I hereby invite all my Friends and all past, present & potential future Clients/Customers - to a FREE screening of "WALL-E" at Market Square Theatres, 6604 Odana Rd in Madison, next Saturday evening, 11/1/08 at 7 PM. The Disney/Pixar animated film, WALL-E, was released (rated G - Suitable For All) in June of this year, and has something for Everyone, including very strong appeal to ALL AGES! It is about an old, somewhat lonely robot in the future, and how with the help of a much smarter, cuter, (and PERHAPS wiser), more powerful younger robot, they ultimately come to save the world. It is charming and heartwarming, and to some extent a musical (though with precious little dialog), HILARIOUS for both kids and adults, a tender love story, and most importantly a paean (song of praise and tribute) to the Earth, OUR HOME.
This SPECIAL event is next Saturday evening, November 1st at 7 PM, and is my Halloween Treat to You! Please RSVP by phone (608-219-8946) or reply via email or using this
contact form so I can anticipate the proper size screening room for the showing.
While children (and entire Families) are more than Welcome, all under age 18 MUST be accompanied by parent or legal guardian for liability and insurance reasons. Please plan to arrive by 6:45 PM to assure your seating (which may be limited), and to receive a Gift with my complements as well. My sincere thanks to each and every one of you for being in my life, and for contributing to my success and the person who I have become today! Looking forward to seeing you in person soon,
