Has the U.S. made notable progress in following the Australian footsteps, Stuart?

Matt, that is a question I was hoping to hear on the webinar.  I had the great fortune to be involved in the Onslow project with Horizon Power in Western Australia, so I got a first-hand look at what they were doing.  And, at the same time, I was also working in California, trying to solve the same problems with distributed energy resources.  Australia is 3 years ahead of the US.  The SwitchDin folks have fantastic technology, and I am now working with them to help bring their technology to the US.  We are definitely behind and could stand to learn a lot from the Aussies.  They are definitely the world's trailblazers with DER.
