Hi
Someone else also forwarded this article to as well, good piece. ILSR is
where we get a lot of our support material.
If we had a semi locally owned electric cooperative to work from, they
would be a natural initiator of an effort. PG+E might be an ideal
candidate to lease the DavisGIG fiber to in our community. It seems like
it would be something in their interest that would provide their
operations a direct benefit. For example, Chattanooga EPB leading the
way on that with automated and autonomous real time power routing
capabilities their networked electrical assets provide.
At the July BATF meeting some people from the Community Choice Energy
committee came to make that proposition, and it has been added as a
consideration or possible use case scenario to the feasibility study RFP
document.
The city release date for that is sometime around 9.1.2016 by the way.
