Holeka; Hustace,James Subject: How Smart Meters Communicate and The American Cancer Society"s Cancer Concerns with Smart Grids Date: Monday, March 10, 2025 7:35:52 PM Aloha, Please Vote Unfavorable for Smart Grid and Broadband New Smart Grid Researched Information: "How do smart meters communicate? For example, smart meters don't always transmit directly to the cloud. They typically transmit data to a local smart meter gateway, which aggregates data from all meters in an area and then forwards it to the cloud, where providers and customers can access it through a platform. Note: Both components are often indoors and sometimes underground, so they need communication solutions that can penetrate buildings and obstructions." And they need to penetrate our bodies as well. How many sensors will be needed, millions? https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8220/20/8/2187 Under Abstract: "Sensors for monitoring electrical parameters over an entire electricity network infrastructure play a fundamental role in protecting smart grids..." "...a new smart sensor is developed that offers the capability to update its adjustment settings during real-time operation, in coordination with the rest of the smart sensors spread over the network." From what I have read, Hawai'i Planning's 2045 General Plan doesn't explain broadband or a smart grid, and it doesn't include information on any health risk research. Links explaining smart grids, smart meters, and broadband health risks because they emit RFR (Radio Frequency Radiation) waves. It's not WiFi, it's a whole other kind of network. https://emfacademy.com/smart-meter-radiation/#aioseo-smart-meter-radiation-an- introduction:
