1. A method for adapting the power consumption of a computational device in response to environmental conditions, comprising:

  • acquiring operating environmental condition data relevant to the generation of electric power in a power grid system from an operating environment feed input;

    analyzing the operating environmental condition data to determine an indication of a high demand for electric power from the power grid system; and

    a computational device automatically reducing a current amount of consumption of electric power from the power grid system by the computational device if the analyzing determines the high electric power demand indication.
