WHAT IS SMART GRID? An intelligent electricity- delivery system: energy suppliers and consumers: interconnect through a network

Smart meters:are installed at homes and business monitor energy consumption transmit that information back to energy providers

Energy providers :track energy consumptionautomatically throttle down energy consumption on a granular level when demand gets too high.

WHO ARE USING SMART GRID?

Individual consumers

Corporate participation

Government regulators

HOW SMART GRID IS USED?

Foster communication between the energy company and the end consumer

Electricity is sent from:

Allows energy companies to track areas of high use, identify possible outages, and provide the proper service.

ADVANTAGES OF SMART GRID Reduces the cost of blackouts

Helps measure and reduce energy consumption and costs

Helps businesses reduce their carbon footprint

Opens up new opportunities for tech companies meaning more jobs created!!!

DISADVANTAGES OF SMART GRIDBiggest concern: security and privacySmart Grid: use

automated meters, two-way communications: between a power consumer and

providerand advanced sensors

Some types of meters can be hackedHacker:

gain control of thousands, even millions, of meters increase or decrease the demand for power

DISADVANTAGES (CONT.)Not simply a single component

Various technology components: software, the power generators, system integrators, etc.

Expensive for consumer: $60 per month

SMART GRID FUTURE 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

CONCLUSION Smart Grid is a concept  designed to provide electricity in more efficient way by better allocating electricity according to consumer’s wants.

It integrated multiple energy sources and avoid over-generation as well.

In foreign countries, namely the UK and USA, started to implement as they see it as a solution of energy and environment pressure in their own country.
