The document discusses smart grid technology. It begins with an introduction and then covers related work, components of a smart grid, how it works, features, advantages and disadvantages. A smart grid integrates information and communication technologies with the traditional power grid. It allows two-way communication between utilities and customers. Key components include connectivity networks, smart meters, and sensors. A smart grid provides benefits like reduced losses, automated control, reliability and reduced carbon emissions. However, challenges include the need to augment existing infrastructure and ensuring communication is not interrupted. Overall, smart grids are expected to become more widely used in the future.

5. SMART GRID
 Integration of electrical, digital, communication & IT
technology [1]
 Intelligent future electricity system which delivers
electricity to consumers using two way transmission
technology [2]

6. WORKING
TWO WAY COMMUNICATION
 Communication between smart meter & central
system [3]
 People can generate own power from renewable
sources
 Send energy back to grid which enhance supply
 Minimizes dependence on fossil fuels
 Charging of electric cars only when sufficient
renewable energy is present

7. COMPONENTS OF SMART GRID
 A Smart grid has two main components:
1. Connectivity Network
a. Core Network
b. Distribution Networks
2. Access Networks
a. Sensing & measurement

8. CORE NETWORK
 Core network handles connectivity between
substations & utility’s head office [2]
 Technologies used for core network implementation
include:
a. Wire line technologies
b. Fiber optics
c. Wireless technologies
d. WiMax

9. DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
 Handles broadband connectivity for transmitting
data collected by Smart Power Grid concentrators
& distribution automation devices[2]
 Technologies used are:
a. Wire line technologies
b. Fiber optics
c. Broadband over power lines(BPL)
d. Wireless technologies
e. WiMax
f. GSM

10. SENSING & MEASUREMENT
 Smart meter is used
 Electricity usage
 Costing
 Contribution of CO2 to greenhouse effect

11. FEATURES OF SMART GRID
 Reduce global warming
 Repairing & maintenance
 Reliability
 Security
 Socio-economic development
 Technology

12. COMPARISON
 Digital in nature
 Two side
communication
 Distributed generation
 Sensors are used
 Self monitoring
 Adaptive & intelligent
 Self healing
Existing Grid Smart Grid
 Electromechanical
 One way
communication
 Centralized generation
 Sensors are not used
 Manual monitoring
 Failures & blackouts
 Manual restoration

13. Before: Today’s grid
One way exchange of energy;
Information;
One rate at all times.
After: Smart grid
Two way exchange of energy;
Information;
Smart meter turns backward for
Sending power from home to grid

14. ADVANTAGES
 Reduce carbon foot prints
 Self healing
 Automated control for distribution
 Sensing & measurement technologies
 Increased efficiency
 Self monitoring
 Reduction in losses

15. DISADVANTAGES
 Most renewable sources are intermittent
 Present infrastructure is inadequate & requires
augmentation
 Two ways communication fails in some manners

16. CONCLUSION
 It refers to the modernized version of the earlier
traditional method of energy supply.
 Smart home, smart meter, smart city- overall, a
smart system is going to be the reality in recent
future.

17. FUTURE SCOPE
 In the near future, will not be any vast development.
 Risky because of financial demands and regulations.
 In the long-run, attitudes will change, wide spread usage
of the smart grid from every business to every home just
like the Internet.

18. Some companies working on Smart grid
technology for betterment of future grid
on national & international level.
