What is a Smart Grid?
Intelligent Electricity Networks
A Smart Grid uses digital technology, automation, and two-way communication between utility providers and consumers. It enhances the generation, distribution, and consumption of electricity by making the grid more responsive, efficient, and secure.
- AMI: Advanced Metering Infrastructure.
- Automation: Real-time grid control & fault detection.
- Load forecasting: Predictive demand management.
- DER Integration: Solar, wind & battery storage.
- Outage Mgmt: Rapid detection & restoration.
- Cybersecurity: Layered protection for critical assets.
