4. INTRODUCTION
An electrical grid is an interconnected network for
delivering electricity from suppliers to consumers.
Building the smart grid means adding computer and
communications technology to the existing electricity
grid.
Smart Grid = Information Technology + Electric Grid.
The flow of electricity from utility to consumer
becomes a two-way conversation.

5. OVERVIEW OF SMART GRID

6. Adding sensing, embedded processing and digital
communications makes the grid:
 Observable
 Controllable
 Automated
 Fully integrated

7. SMART GRID
 Uses information technologies to improve how electricity
travels from power plants to consumers.
 Allows consumers to interact with the grid.
 Integrates new and improved technologies into the operation of
the grid.

8. NEED OF SMART GRID
Smart Grid adds communication and control
capabilities that will optimize the operation of the
entire electric grid.
Adding new transmission lines will help the utilities
get more power from the power plants to your home.
Reduce cost of power cuts.
Increasing demand for power supply.
Smart Grid is also positioned to take advantages of
new technologies.

9. WHO ARE USING SMART GRID?
Individual consumers
Corporate participation
Government regulators

10. HOW SMART GRID IS USED?
 Faster communication between the energy companies and the end
consumers.
 Electricity is sent from:
 Allows energy companies to track areas of high use, identify
possible outages, and provide the proper service.

17. DISADVANTAGES
 Biggest concern: Privacy and security.
 Meters hacking.
 The hackers may gain control over the meters and this may
reduce the demand for power.
 Not simply a single component.
 Various technology component.
 Expansive in terms of installation.

18. FUTURE SCOPE
 Implementation of the smart grid concept would go a
long way in solving many of today's energy issues and
problems.
 As the new technologies would be invented and
strengthened existing ones to the desired
specifications meet the Smart Grid would be reality
and change the whole pattern of energy in the world.

19. CONCLUSION
 By using smart grid technology energy can be
utilized to the maximum and would not be wasted.
It refers to the modernized version of the earlier
traditional method of energy supply.
Allows consumers to interact with the grid.
