The smart grid is an enhancement of the 20th century electrical grid, using two-way communications and distributed so-called intelligent devices. [1] Two-way flows of electricity and information could improve the delivery network.
The improved flexibility of the smart grid permits greater penetration of highly variable renewable energy sources such as solar power and wind power, even without the addition of energy storage. Smart grids could also monitor/control residential devices that are noncritical during periods of peak power consumption, and return their function ...
OSGP follows a modern, structured approach based on the OSI protocol model to meet the evolving challenges of the smart grid. At the application layer, ETSI TS 104 001 provides a table-oriented data storage based, in part, on the ANSI C12.19 / MC12.19 / 2012 / IEEE Std 1377 standards for Utility Industry End Device Da
The term smart meter often refers to an electricity meter, but it also may mean a device measuring natural gas, water or district heating consumption. [1] [2] More generally, a smart meter is an electronic device that records information such as consumption of electric energy, voltage levels, current, and power factor.
Title XIII of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (Pub.L. 110–140) [12] is the only major piece of federal legislation that addresses the modernization of the United States’ electric utility transmission and distribution system by upgrading to the Smart Grid.
In August 2011, the journal's "Protecting Smart Grid Automation Systems Against Cyberattacks," authored by IEEE members Dong Wei and Yan Lu became the three millionth document in IEEE Xplore, IEEE's extensive digital library. [38] Mohammad Shahidehpour is the current Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid. [37]

Using a PMU, it is simple to detect abnormal waveform shapes. A waveform shape described mathematically is called a phasor.. A phasor measurement unit (PMU) is a device used to estimate the magnitude and phase angle of an electrical phasor quantity (such as voltage or current) in the electricity grid using a common time source for synchronization.
