Introduction (1/4) Traditional power grid Interconnected and complex network Deliver electricity from utility companies to consumers. Comprises of following four major parts as in Fig. 1* Generation Produce electrical power Non-renewable resources (fossil fuel, coal, gases, e.t.c.) Renewable resources (wind, solar, water, e.t.c ) Transmission Bulk of high-voltage transmission line. Transformers (Step-up, step-down) Towers. Distribution To distribute electrical power. Relays Interrupters Consumption Residential load. Commercial load. Industrial load.

Introduction (2/4) Drawbacks Unintelligent electricity system. Conventional power grid suffers lots of economical losses. Contributing factors and its consequences include*: Aging equipment: Unreliable--higher failure rates. Customer interruption rates--maintenance costs, repair and restoration costs. Obsolete system layout: Require serious additional and smart substation. Lack of computational abilities. Lack of communication abilities. Outdated engineering: Traditional tools for power delivery. Lack of smart electronic control and sensors. Lack of storage system. Lack of energy management systems. * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

Introduction (3/4) Parts that can be made smart To increase Water powered LED shower Generation Smart Ways of Generation Solar, wind, hydro energy Parts that can be made smart To increase Efficiency Reliability and Robustness of the entire electrical power system In this regard, there is a need to modify all sections of electrical power grid Generation Transmission Distribution Consumption We have summarized these section as in fig. 2 Piezoelectric Effect Self healing Machine communication Transmission Intelligent Ways of Transmission Eliminate transmission lines Power system Smart electronic sensors Smart metering Distribution Efficient Distribution Smart control room Optimization techniques Dynamic Tariff models Consumption Cost- effective Consumption Energy efficient appliances Fig. 2: Sections of power grid * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

Introduction (4/4) Smart grid(Evolutionary power grid) Infrastructure that supports* Advanced electricity generation, delivery, and consumption; Advanced information metering, monitoring, and management; and Advanced communication technologies. Steps for conceptual design of a smart grid as in fig. 3 Visualizing power system in real time Increasing system capacity Eliminating bottlenecks Enabling a self healing system Enabling connectivity to consumers Fig. 3: Concept of Smart power grid * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

Benefits of Smart grid Generation (Distributed) Security DSM Load management Demand response Network topology Generation (Distributed) Transmission (Bi-directional) Distribution Computational ability Communications infrastructure Reliability Intelligent Fault detection Intelligent Fault anticipation Sustainability Bank of electrical energy reservoirs Demand side management(DSM Fig. 4: Smart grid units Fig.5: Main features of smart grid * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

Distribution generation Smart grid will enable renewable resources i.e. Solar energy Wind energy Hydro energy plants Bio-gas energy plants e.t.c. Promotes consumers to: actively participate energy management system Smart grid will lessen CO2 emission benefits Fig. 6: Expected CO2 emission * http://carbon.coop/blog/zapaman/community-smart-grid-prosumer-perspective.

Distribution Energy storage banks Grid energy storage is a collection of methods Used to store electrical energy on a large scale. Electrical energy is stored When production exceeds consumption returned to the grid when production falls below consumption Some notable energy storage projects include* Sir Adam Beck Hydroelectric Generating Stations  Bear Swamp Hydroelectric Power Station  Seneca Pumped Storage Generating Station  Salina Pumped Storage Project Carters Dam  Smith Mountain Dam  Matanoagawa Dam Fig. 7: Energy Storage Systems * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_energy_storage_projects
