And then you have to bend those horns into a more aerodynamic shape. Right?

So it’s very much a big deal that Hydro One and Hydro One Brampton recently announced they’ve installed 1,000,000 smart meters.  Why is that a big deal?  Smart meters are incredibly effective energy savers.

But is it worth it for the average consumer from an economic standpoint or is building green just another luxury that only the very few can afford? How much more depends on which energy efficiency standard you choose.<a class="readMoreLink" href="http://www.centreflow.ca/2008/10/22/does-eco-friendly-actually-pay-off/">Read More...</a>]]></description>
