Decoded: What is a 'Smart Grid' and how does it work?

[dixter]

this is a really great video. best I have seen so far on smart grids

Great video - this was a lot more informative and substantive than many of the formal studies I've read on smart grids.

This is going to happen in 30 years from now, starting World War 3!

Not a complete black out (homes will still have energy) but enormous industries like Automobile Manufacturing, Food Industry, SpaceX and more will suffer a fatal lose in their economy, affecting the rest of the economy because the electrical power won't be enough to support the demands! The culprit is the extinction of oils and gases mostly found in the Middle East.
The only way to save ourselves is to brew more Electrical & Computer Engineers so we can finally build the Smart Grid. We already know how to do it in theory we just need a much better telecommunication system (much faster and reliable than 5G) and a pretty amazing control system. But without more engineers, this won't be possible to build and maintained! We need to have thousands of more engineers in 20 years from now that truly understand Dynamics And Control I, II , Telecommunications and any Electrical Energy related concept (And software engineers, basically we all need to work together to make this possible)!

We could live without that much energy, but all the rich and powerful people, after they lose billions of profits because of this, will desperately try to control any energy source that it's left for no reason (since it will be extinct anyways), and thousands will die fighting their wars!!!

How come the most powerful country in the world has a power grid century's old
