The Smart Grid is a more reliable, environmentally friendly, economically viable and secure power grid. It is a multi-faceted and integrated solution to the problem of modern energy delivery that encourages consumer participation and incorporates small-scale distributed generation resources such as solar panels and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs). It is also a vast information network that relies on high-speed two-way communications networks, increased digital monitoring and control of system assets, and advanced operations and real-time automation systems. |
