Goal
 Upgrade the grid in smart way.
What is smart grid ?
A smart grid is an electricity network
enabling a two-way flow of electricity and
data with digital communications technology
enabling to detect, react and pro-act to
changes in usage and multiple issues. Smart
grids have self-healing capabilities and
enable electricity customers to become
active participants.
Introduction:
Urbanization, living standards and
advancement in technology has increase the
demand of energy requirement. This made
electricity consumption rises to levels that may
no longer be manageable if left unattended.
This is an alarming situation not only for
providing sustainable energy but also
preservation of environment worldwide. Almost
75–80% of total energy consumption is
consumed in cities which is responsible for
80% greenhouse gas emission.
 The electricity grid in present form is unreliable,
has high transmission losses, poor power quality,
prone to brownouts and blackouts, supplying
inadequate electricity, discouraging to integration
of distributed energy sources. There is a lack of
monitoring and real time control in the traditional
non smart systems, which creates a challenging
opportunity for smart grids to act as a real time
solution. Countering these issues requires a
complete overhauling of power delivery structure.
Electrical benefits are not only the encouraging
force for the introduction of ‘smart grid’.

comprehensive smart grid
Cyber attacks
Hard to replacing old grid system and it is
better to reuse of existing hardware
infrastructure by adding modern controller
devices.
