Smart Grid Definition
Present Mode of Operation: “Transporting energy from major generation sources
using mostly non-renewable fuels to consumers who have limited knowledge of
their consumption, where outages affecting customers are largely unknown until
the customer alerts the network operator”
Smart Grid Proposition: “dynamic network for two way energy flows; linking
widely dispersed renewable energy sources and large energy sources; providing
more dynamic information to customers; facilitating customer choice about
energy source and level of consumption; and providing real-time information on
the performance of the network”

1. Demand for Electricity is Growing
■ Raising power needs in developed & developing countries
■ Conservatives - anticipated growth in demand of 2% per year, this works out
to 50% increase in demand over the next 20 years
■ Flexible Tariff -> change demand pattern , More Complex to Predict

3. Regulation – Europe
■ EU 20.20.20 initiative

■
■
■
Improve energy efficiency by 20%,
Increase the percentage of renewable energy by 20%
To be accomplished by 2020.
Mandate includes a directive for 80% of European households to
have smart metering capabilities by 2020, and 100% by 2022.
■ Standards & Interoperability
■ Network Security
■ Stimulus packages -> Support national economic growth

What Is Smart Grid and its Benefits?
"A smarter grid applies technologies, tools and techniques available now
to bring knowledge to power - knowledge capable of making the grid work
far more efficiently"

Summary
Smart grid is much more than smart meters
Communication is THE key enabler for Smart Grids
Efforts shall be put in the Grid Flexibility, Scalability
Reliability while mix legacy and new communication
technology.
