Introduction
• An electrical grid, is an interconnected network for
delivering electricity from producers to consumers.
• Smart Grid includes variety of
operations like-
Smart meters
Smart appliances
Renewable and Energy
efficient resources
Aspects
-Electronic Power Conditioning
-Control of the production and
distribution of electricity
Smart Grid FEATURES
• ADAPTIVE
• PREDICTIVE
• INTEGRATED
• OPTIMIZED
• DISASTER AVOIDANCE
• Information is sent using broadband over power lines
Comparison
Existing grid Smart grid
• Electromechanical • Digital
• One-way communication • Two-way communication
• Centralized generation • Distributed generation
• Few sensors • Sensors throughout
• Manual monitoring • Self-monitoring
• Manual restoration • Self-healing
• Failures and blackouts • Adaptive and islanding
Smart Grid Drivers
• Fossil fuel based energy • Subsidy by govt. on
renewable energy

Generation
Smart Grid Problems
Some problems include-
Customer privacy problems
Security problems
Grid volatility
Inflexibility
Privacy Problems
Technology enable some
people to control power
supply in wrong manner.
Communication between
utilities and meter increases
the chance of someone
gaining control over power
supply.
Grid Volatility
Much intelligence at edges but
insufficient intelligence in middle.
Lack of integrated development makes
it a volatile network.
If too many nodes are added before
developing software intelligence,
conditions leads to a volatile smart grid.
Conclusion
There is no doubt that the emergence of the smart grid
will lead to an environment friendly future ,a better
power supply ,and finally to revolutionize our daily
lives.
But we still have a long way to go before this vision
becomes reality.
We need to consider not only how this mighty
hammer(smart grid),but also the nails(various
functions) can be used to improve.
