The Smart Grid is for Everyone (And can Save you Money!) | NextPit Weekly Round-Up

[View online](=) //WEEKLY ☰ ⊗ [News](=) [Reviews]( [Best Lists]( [Videos]() [Community]() Dear {NAME}, ​ Energy prices and sourcing are topics that frequently come and go, depending on your country or even state. Changes brought by fluctuating prices, war in far away lands, and climate change brought the discussion back, especially in Europe. But even if you live in Africa, Asia, the Americas, or Oceania, the time is ripe to discuss about the smart grid. With an increasing number of energy sources, and questions about their variability, our editorial this week questions whether we should rely on centralized sources of energy, or whether we can help produce our own and reduce the strain on the traditional grid (saving money in the process). My colleague Stefan Möllenhoff discuss some initiatives and options currently available in the market, and some of the challenges left to transition to a smarter energy consumption. Check the article below together with some of this week's highlights. See you next week, ¢Â€Â‹ Rubens Eishima Editor --------------------------------------------------------------- ​ ​ //What you really need to know Energy Transition at Home: Everyone can Join in with the Smart Grid The energy transition is coming - and NextPit believes that everyone can get involved.
