You are 100% correct. I know a guy who is in the business. Under development are systems that will allow remote control of your electrical devices. This would include TVs, A/C units, freezers . . . down to the light switch level. Such remote control is currently available, but not to the level where other people can control the devices in your home.
If they spent half as much time and money INCREASING THE SUPPLY of power, we wouldn't need all this crap.

It will probably work like the local water system here. They put water restrictions on everyone around here for the past 2 years. So, lo and behold water usage is down 30 percent. Well, now they are complaining that because usage is down, their revenue is down and now we must raise rates by 9% now and 9% in December. Bend over and grab the ankles!

That doesn't fit the utility company's business model. The business model is to produce less, charge more.
Name ONE other industry that openly advertises for you to buy/use less of their product/service.
