The Smart-Grid Revolution Starts in Boulder‚ Colorado Why do you imagine Xcel agreed to invest $100 million in this risky experiment? One of the benefits of investing in this $100 million project includes rerouting power around bottlenecked lines. This allows Xcel Energy to deliver electricity to areas in Boulder that have a very high demand that the previous conventional electrical grid was unable to service effectively. This smart-grid system also enables Xcel Energy to detect and reduce

The Geographic Grid Ptolemy‚ a Roman mathematician‚ created the geographic grid. This grid is a system of invisible lines that span the globe. The grid has been used for over 2‚000 years as a reference for finding the location of a fixed position on Earth. There are certain components that make up the grid.
