Abstract
An electric socket can include a visual indicator capable of displaying time-series forecast information that forecasts a property or attribute related to the power being sourced from an energy provider. The information being displayed on the visual indicator can help an energy consumer decide whether to use an appliance now by plugging it into the electric socket or wait until some optimal time in the future to plug the appliance in.
