The savings programme from the power outlet.
You will soon discover how intelligent power outlets can be from your power bill.
The dish washer and dryer only turn on when they receive a signal from the power outlet– when the electricity is cheapest. Appliances with a decentralised power supply only feed electricity into the network when it is particularly low and thus it can be sold for a particularly high price.

For 2006, EnBW has planned a first pilot project of this type in a test market in Baden-Württemberg.
