I think this is a very interesting concept that Sony has proposed. I have always thought of Sony is an innovative company that is also a marketing powerhouse. This idea however seems a little underdeveloped to me. I believe this could be a great way to charge for power in the future but I do not see enough people complaining with the power grid systems we have now. This would be an extreme undertaking, costing billions of dollars, to change our countries power grids.
This is a good example of how demand pulls supply. If the demand for this type of "pay as you go" energy was in more demand it would probably already be developed, but since there is not a large demand for new sources of energy (for the most part we are content with the way we pay for our energy), companies simply have not put in the research and development money needed for a project such as this. However I applaud Sony's outside of the box thinking, and encourage them to continue.
