3. A traditional power system consists of centralized generation of electricity, which is
transmitted and distributed to the customers following a unidirectional way [1].
The main primary sources used to generate electricity in the world are non-renewable
and it has several problems as limitation of energy resources, which affects countries
energy security and environmental impacts due to increase of greenhouse gas emissions[1]
Considering this scenario, we need a modern power system able to improve
1. grids efficiency, reliability and security
2. reduce on peak demand
3. offer environmental benefits
4. locate and repair faults easily
5. accommodate renewable resources among others.
These features can be achieved by automated controls, modern communication
infrastructure and sensing, monitoring and energy management technologies [1].
Therefore the term smart grid has been in use since at least 2005, when the article
"Toward A Smart Grid"[4] appeared.
Introduction:-
4. “A smart grid can be defined as a generation, transmission and distribution system
equipped with a two-way communication system controlled by the grid operator”[1]
Andres Carvallo defined smart grid as [2], “The smart grid is the integration of an
electric grid, a communications network, software and hardware to monitor, control
and manage the creation, distribution, storage and consumption of energy”
Definition of Smart Grid
5. Aim and Objective of Research work
Research objective:-
• To analyze the Impact of smart management of consumer’s appliances.
• To Optimized model of micro grid.
• To analyze the effect of smart sensors and smart appliances placements in smart grid
The aim of research work is to analyze major issues in the area for the smart grid .
The literature survey in detail will be carried out on different issues associated with smart grid
and the categorization has been done based on the related issues covered(Smart appliances,
,Renewable Energy Sources, Smart Meter, Energy Storage Technology, TA and DA).

India [11]
In this paper, the author discussed the various issues regarding
the implementation of smart grid. It is considered that
introduction of “Smart Grid” technology will improve the
reliability of power system, quality of supply, efficiency of the
power sector apart from consumer friendly and ultimately
reduces line losses.

On Smart Grid
8. Identification of Problem and research gap
• Transmission Automation (TA): Smart transmission has automated substations and
coordination among protection devices. It also uses Sensors, Communication
Systems and dynamic limiters [1].
• Distribution Automation(DA): Distribution Automation system can be designed
with the computer technology, control systems and metering systems. The
automation of the distribution system has increased in order to improve the
quality of supply and allow the connection of more distributed generation.
•Transmission Automation (TA)
•Distribution Automation(DA)
•Smart appliances
•Renewable Energy Sources
•Smart Meter
•Energy Storage Technology
9. •Smart appliances: Smart Appliances is also important component of smart grid.
The consumption of energy is very less in smart appliances. The advantage of smart
appliances are not limited to making life easier
PMU: PMU is used for full system observability which take into account the lack of
availability of appropriate data in all network nodes as well as the intervention of
all renewable energy sources which will improve system stability [21]. A work can
be done on the optimization of algorithm used for allocating the PMU.
SST: A SST is a type of electrical power converter that replaces a conventional
transformer used in A.C power distribution, it is smaller and more efficient than
conventional transformer because it is operates at high frequency. A work can be
done on different application of SST like D.C link for different D.G and electric
vehicles, for improving power quality of grid, as a isolation from between L.V and
H.V and as a circuit breaker [22].
10. • Renewable Energy Sources: Renewable Energy Sources are most important
component of Smart Grid. Renewable Energy Sources are following types: wind
generation, small hydro, micro hydro, solar technologies. Smart control devices are
needed to connect these renewable energy sources to power grid.
HRES: The current trend of research and development are focused in hybrid
renewable energy systems (HRES) that allowing hybridization and optimization of
the electrical energy. Integration of photovoltaic and wind energy system for
sustained the electric generation has been done[23], The same work can be done
on integration of photovoltaic and biomass plant
11. • Smart Meter: The smart meter is digital and bidirectional, being an interface
between the consumer and the electric utility. Smart meters provide a plate form
for the electric utility to send control signs to smart homes, necessary to increase
or to decrease home electricity consumption Moreover, the data collected by
smart meters provides real time information about electricity consumption of a
utility service centre [1]
Among the various functionalities of smart meter, time-of-use(TOU) and
bidirectional communication have been found to be the two top most
functionalities. Work can be done on above functionalities of smart meter[20]
12. • Energy Storage Technology: Electric Storage technologies such as advanced
batteries, pumped hydro and others require electricity to be stored and dispatched
during times of peak demand or to provide power from renewable resources.
Energy storage with integration of RES can smooth the intermittency of energy
sources, minimize reverse power flow and keeps voltage within limit, store output
power and release coincidental with local load and control ram rate of power
fluctuations.[24]
there are different opportunities and challenges for different types of energy
storing technology used for smart grid, especially for hybrid energy storage
technology, which will create a new research area in future.
14. Motivation of the research:
• As we know Electricity generation by non-renewable sources has several
problems as limitation of energy resources, which affects countries energy
security and environmental impacts due to increase of greenhouse gas
emissions.
• Also a traditional power system consists of centralized generation of
electricity, which is transmitted and distributed to the customers following
a unidirectional way.
• So the aim of this research is to improve grids efficiency, reliability and
security ; reduce on peak demand ; offer environmental benefits ;locate
and repair faults easily; accommodate renewable resources; among
others. These features can be achieved by automated controls, modern
communication infrastructure and sensing, monitoring and energy
management technologies i.e Known as Smart Grid
