	This report from the White House spotlights what the Obama Administration considers some of the most innovative and effective projects funded by the Recovery Act, including many that are smart grid initiatives and or related technologies. For example, the report notes that in the 18 months since the Recovery Act became law, ground has been broken on nine electric car battery plants, which will provide capacity for 20 % of the world’s car batteries which is up from 2 % when the Recovery Act passed in February 2009. Work has been approved on the world’s largest solar plant, wind farms are being supported and almost 200,000 homes have been weatherized, plus over two million smart meters have been installed. This report provides a snapshot of 100 varied Recovery Act projects, not just those that are energy-related projects.
