Smart Grid Data Centers Distributed & ICTs Sustainability on Generation Energ...IJMTST Journal
Smart grid has modernized the way electricity is generated, transported, distributed, and consumed by integrating advanced sensing, communications, and control in the day-to-day operation of the grid. Electricity is a core utility for the functioning of society and for the services provided by information and communication technologies(ICTs). Several concepts of the smart grid, such as dynamic pricing, distributed generation, and demand management, have significantly impacted the operation of ICT services, in particular, communication networks and data centers. Ongoing energy-efficiency and operational expenditures reduction efforts in communication networks and data center shave gained another dimension with those smart grid concepts. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey on the smart grid-driven approaches in energy-efficient communications and data centers, and the interaction between smart grid and information and communication infrastructures. Although the studies on smart grid, energy-efficient communications, and green data centers have been separately surveyed in previous studies, to this end, research that falls in the intersection of those fields has not been properly classified and surveyed yet. We start our survey by providing background information on the smart grid and continue with surveying smart grid-driven approaches in energy-efficient communication systems, followed by energy, cost and emission minimizing approaches in datacenters, and the corresponding cloud network infrastructure. Through a communication infrastructure, a smart grid can improve power reliability and quality to eliminate electricity blackout.
On Going research on Problems Faced In smart grid in general. Yet Work is in progress Just a light notes on General issues in smart grid, Technically work is to be on target in smart grid.
The energy grid is currently undergoing a historical change of state from the traditional structure where a utility owns the generation, transmission and distribution services into an integrated smart grid in a monopolistic market which introduce consumers as active players in managing and controlling the power. This report provides an analysis of the methods applicable to smart grid interoperability tests. A systematic approach for developing smart grid interoperability tests was adopted by analyzing a house and an industries looking at the analysis of their active power. This analysis of active power gives the exact idea to know the range of maximum permissible loads that can be connected to their relevant bus bars. This paper presents the change in the value of Active Power with varying load angle in context with small signal analysis using wind, solar and generator grid . The result obtained showed that, consumers can then choose the cheapest energy to be consumed.

integrate with the existing grid.
Enabled by new information
and communication
technologies this provides
utilities with more efficient ways
to manage their infrastructure
and can provide consumers
with the ability to participate
fully in the energy market.
Together this will lead to a
more flexible and economically
efficient system that can also
better accommodate and even
benefit from new technologies
such as electric vehicles and
renewables.
Assuming minimal prior
knowledge, this course
provides complete coverage of
the key ICT, engineering, and
economic aspects of smart
grids at a fundamental level.
Course description
Several motivating factors are
emerging as key considerations
in electricity production and
delivery. These being energy
security, empowered
consumers and climate
change. These factors are
driving fundamental changes
in the way that energy is
generated, managed and
distributed. Smart grids are
emerging as the technology
able to address the demands
of a changing energy provision
landscape. This includes
support for electric vehicles,
distributed renewable energy
supplies, and improvements in
operational support of the grid.
Professionals with the right
mix of power engineering,
Information & Communications
Technology (ICT) and
economics knowledge are
critical to support the
development of energy
infrastructure, services, and the
consumer interest in Australia.
This unique combination of
skills is presently not readily
accessible in the industry.
The Smart Grid Course will
address this skills shortage
and is jointly conducted as a
collaborative effort between
Monash University, UNSW,
and IBM.
The smart grid course is
designed for engineers, power
company staff and other energy
professionals from all electricity
industry sectors including
distribution, retail, generation
and transmission. It would
equally be of interest
to state and federal energy
regulation specialists,
government policy
professionals, ICT industry
professionals who are
interested in smart-grid
opportunities, and consumer
advocacy specialists. The
course will help them ensure
they are well positioned with
the right knowledge and
advanced skills.
Skills that are necessary to
adapt to the new electricity
industry technological trends,
to transform their business
models, develop new business
models, deliver smart grid
programs, or serve their
constituencies and
stakeholders better.
The course will address
several key topics in power
engineering, energy
economics, and ICT, as well
as the convergence of these
technologies into smart grids.
At the end of an intensive
24-hour, 3-day session,
participants will have the
advanced knowledge and skills
to incorporate smart grid
insights or technologies into
their future work.
The attendees will also have
the unique opportunity of being
some of the first to gain an
inside look at the outcomes
of the recently completed $100
million Smart Grid Smart City
project in NSW (www.
