The consumer will receive rapidly pulsed, turned on and off electricity. This on and off pulsing, of their electricity, uses 50% less electricity. This means that 50% of the electricity generation power plants can be shut down, which means less pollution. It should also mean a 50% smaller electric bill.

So many times in the past (and present) incentives for renewable energy have been pulled and left the market dry. Current developers who hope to protect their investment must have the federal backing that the renewable market will be stable. That is what will be needed to see ANY increase in capacity from solar, wind, etc.
