8. Key Insight #1: Purposeful Effort is Required if We are to Respond to the Climate Imperative Standard Technology Performance, Productivity and Returns Time Some might say this is about where we are on the curve at the moment
9. Key Insight #1: Purposeful Effort is Required if We are to Respond to the Climate Imperative Cumulative Investment and Purposeful Effort Transformation Standard Technology Smart Grid/ Smart Infrastructure and other ICT-Enabled Technology Performance, Productivity and Returns But, new metrics are required to help us understand the full range of opportunities, and to evaluate and verify their impact
