Extracto de la noticia:

"GreenWave, a startup founded by ex-Cisco execs, has already started
shipping the bulbs to European utility customers, including Seas-NVE
in Denmark, Nuon in the Netherlands, and Fortum in Sweden. The new
bulbs are also certified for sale in the United States, where a basic
kit, containing a gateway device and four bulbs, along with a handheld
remote, will cost about $200, GreenWave CEO Greg Memo said in a phone
interview.

Individual bulbs run in the $20 to $30 range, Memo said -- a
reasonable price, compared to the Energy Star-rated, fully dimmable
LEDs that might be seen as competition on the market. In Europe, on
the other hand, utilities have already been supplying NXP
networking-embedded LEDs to key customers as part of their energy
efficiency initiatives, he said. Monday’s announcement means they can
now add GreenWave’s energy management platform to support them as
well. "
