Only one year after David Petraeus referred to the publicly emerging technological structure of Web-connected appliances and in-home devices as the “Internet of things” (IOT), applications are now merging with the smart grid. It is a dream come true for the intelligence community looking for opportunities to spy on the average American in their homes, while globalists simultaneously advance an eco-fascist Agenda 21-based energy control system throughout the world.

This is being accomplished by the fact that the new IOT expansion is extending from domestic in-home devices such as refrigerators, toasters, and televisions, and is moving toward the industrial sector such as oil and gas, wind power, airlines, health care, and railroads. This new IOT application would allow not only for the connection of machines to the Internet, but to each other.

General Electric, the company blazing the trail of the industrial IOT, recently “doubl[ed] the vertically-specialized hardware/software packages it offers to connect machines and interpret their data. The company hopes to make its mark by significantly reducing the amount of ‘unplanned downtime’ that industrial equipment undergoes, thereby bringing about economic benefits.”

Yet GE is not the only major corporation that is jumping on board with the Industrial IOT. As Singularity Hub states, “the company has partnered with some of the usual enterprise technology suspects. Intel is providing processors and management tools for the motley crew network. AT&T provides the Internet service, and Cisco software helps tackle the big data. GE brings knowledge of the industries and their equipment.”

Brian Bradford, the marketing director of Smart Grid Solutions in GE’s Digital Energy division, in an interview with Singularity Hub, stated “At the end of the day, we see our strength in how to operate these systems, how the hardware and sensors work on these systems, and how you can take information and turn it into something that can add more predictive value for the [industrial] customer.”

For those who are unaware of what the terms “Smart Grid” and “Smart City” mean, the Smart Grid is essentially a computerized system that allows the monitoring and control over energy use from power at the plant source to every appliance in the home. Smart Grid technology is a major part of UN Agenda 21, the United Nations' plan to herd a drastically reduced population into “human habitat areas,” meaning ultra-modern super cities with stack em’ and pack em’ dwelling structures and zero contact with nature and the outside world.

Regardless, two of the new Smart Grid products being offered by GE are the PowerUp program and the GridIQInsight. PowerUp is largely dedicated to the upgrades of software and hardware of wind farm operators.

GridIQInsight, however, is the more wide-ranging program of the two as it exhibits most of the aspects of Agenda 21 by monitoring “electrical usage, weather history, and equipment performance.” In addition, as Singularity Hub reports, “the system can forecast problems that a utility grid might face, ideally resulting in fewer outages and thinner margins of surplus power.”

Yet, regardless of the technology being developed such as that being mentioned above, according to many analysts the IOT will “have to employ a common set of protocols for ‘things’ to talk to one another.” GE, of course, is prepared for just such an obstacle and apparently intends to use its Predix software as the actual language base for “machine-to-machine communication.”

In addition, Intel has announced their newest line of chips – Quark – which “are a fifth the size and consume a tenth the power of Atom, their smallest low-power chip to date.” This new chip line was developed with both “wearable” electronics and the IOT in mind. Indeed, Quark also has frightening implications regarding the coming implantable devices for which they were also created.

While one could scarcely argue that the development of a technology to better observe and analyze overall energy use and efficiency, as well as predict the potential problems the grid may face, is a bad idea, one should also bear in mind that maximizing energy output and improving its delivery, use and distribution of energy is not what the Smart Grid or any product developed by major corporations like GE is about. The fact is that the Smart Grid is nothing more than a major piece of the Agenda 21 total control system where humans will herded into major cities, driven off the countryside, and all energy consumption will be tightly monitored and dictated – if allowed at all. The development of the technology such as that produced by GE is only one more step toward that goal.
