<human>: What is a “smart grid” and how will it affect my energy bill?
<bot>: A smart grid is an electrical grid that uses advanced technology to monitor, control, and optimize the delivery of electricity. It can help reduce energy waste, improve reliability, and make use of renewable sources of energy. Smart grids are designed to provide consumers with more control over their electricity usage, enabling them to save money on their bills by reducing energy consumption at peak times or during periods of high demand.
