1. Evolution of Electric Grid

2. Need for Smart Grid

3. National and International Initiatives in Smart Grid International Initiatives United States - Initiated smartgrid investment grant program and smart grid demonstration program .aimed at modernizing the grid. European Union - it has the technology called Electricity network of the future to promote research and development in smart grid. China - investing in smart grid technologies and has good plans for modernization. India - launched national smart grid mission to develop infrastructure across the country. International Co-operation - IEC-International Electro Technical Commission and IEA- International Energy Agency facilitate international co operation on smartgrid standards and best practices.

4. National Initiatives National Smart Grid Mission : which includes, Modernizing the grid : Introdusing Digital Technologies Enhancing Grid Reliabiliity : Improved reliability by redusing power outages and losses. Promoting Renewable energy integration : better management on intermittent power generation due to renewable energy integration. Demand Response : this encourages consumers to use electricity during off-peak hrs.there by reducing the pressure on peak hrs. Energy Efficiency : better monitoring and management of energy consumption. Advanced metering Infrastructure (AMI) : smart meter helps in reducing theft, improving accuracy, and enabling consumers to make informed choices about their usage. Gri d Automation : Fault detection, isolation, and recovery,allowed for quicker response to power disturbances and redused down time. Cybersecurity : robust cyber security measures were put in place to protect the grid from cyber threats. Regularity Framework: to encourage investments in smart grid technologies. Pilot Projects: several pilot projects were conducted in various places for testing and evaluation. Training and Capacity Building: these programs were initiated to equip personnel with the necessary skills to operate and maintain smart grid infrasturcture.

6. National and International initiatives in smart grid Technology China The Chinese government has declared that by 2023 the carbon emission per-unit of GDP will reduce to 40∼45 per cent of that in 2008. The State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC) has released a medium–long term plan of the development of the Smart Grid. The SGCC interprets the Smart Grid as A strong and robust electric power system, Ultra High Voltage(UHV) networks based on the coordinated development of power grids at different voltage levels supported by information and communication infrastructure. characterized as an automated.

7. The European Union (EU) The Smart Grids Technology Platform of the European Union (EU) The Smart Grids Technology Platform identified the following important areas as key challenges that impact on the delivery of the EU-mandated targets for the utilisation of renewable energy, efficiency and carbon reductions by 2020 and 2050 Strengthening the grid, including extending it offshore; Developing decentralized architectures for system control; Delivering communications infrastructure; Enabling an active demand side; Integrating intermittent generation; Enhancing the intelligence of generation,

8. Japan The Japanese government declared that by 2020 carbon emissions from all sectors will be reduced to 75 per cent of those in 1990 or two-thirds of those in 2005. In order to achieve this target, 28 GW and 53 GW of photovoltaic (PV) generations are required to be installed in the power grid by 2020 and 2030. Tohoku earthquake on 11 March 2011, the Smart Grid has been attracting much attention for the reconstruction of the damaged districts and the development of a low-carbon society.

9. UK The Department of Energy and Climate Change document Smarter Grids: The aim of developing the Smart Grid is to provide flexibility to the current electricity network, thus enabling a cost-effective and secure transition to a low-carbon energy system. Rapid expansion of intermittent renewables and less flexible nuclear generation in conjunction with the retirement of flexible coal generation; Penetration of distributed energy resources which include distributed generation, demand response and storage; Increasing penetration of electric vehicles.

10. INDIA India - launched national smart grid mission to develop infrastructure across the country. International Co-operation - IEC-International Electro Technical Commission and IEA- International Energy Agency facilitate international co operation on smart grid standards and best practices.
