Abstract

Smart grids are a key suite of technologies to deal with pressing current and future needs in the electricity sector and to enable the effective adoption of low‐carbon energy technologies such as variable renewable energies and electric vehicles. The Smart Grid is a vision of a better electricity delivery infrastructure. Smart Grid implementations dramatically increase the quantity, quality, and use of data available from advanced sensing, computing, and communications hardware and software. As a result, they help utilities address two of today’s most important business drivers: environmental concerns and power delivery constraints and disturbances.
