Jamie Wimberly -- greeted here by Clasma Events CEO Anto Budiardjo -- addressed a plenary session of ConnectivityWeek 2010 to discuss the results of a survey of 1,000+ Americans earlier this month. The EcoPinion survey assessed consumer perceptions and expectations related to smart grid. The survey results point to a critical question: Is it time to separate "smart grid" from "energy" or commodity sales?

Jamie is the CEO of EcoAlign, DEFG's strategic marketing agency focused on energy and environment.  Anto Budiardjo is President & CEO of Clasma Events.  They presented the survey findings and addressed questions during a press conference on May 24th.
