IS BECOMING A PROSUMER IN SERBIA AN IMPOSSIBLE MISSION?/SERBIA AUTHOR: BALKAN GREEN ENERGY NEWS

This is why any attempt at translating the term “prosumer” ends up as an entertaining incident. Prosumer is a term coined in 1980 by American futurist Alvin Toffler in his bestseller The Third Wave to refer to the active role that consumers would play when goods would be mass customized in the production process (prosumer = producer + consumer). However, in recent years the meaning and significance of the term has evolved due to the integration of information technologies and renewable energy into what is often called the “smart grid.”
