SUMMARY

Smart grid is the application of various technologies such as advanced metering, communications, distribution and sub-station automation, controls software, and data analytics to the energy system. Energy grid innovations are sought that dramatically improve the two-way flow of energy and information between grid operators and energy consumers.

Innovations could approaches to empowering consumers to actively manage their energy use (and distributed energy assets), supporting grid operators to optimize how the system serves dynamic energy demands, and laying the foundation for future main-stream technologies such as distributed renewables, electric vehicles, energy storage assets, and the internet-of-things.

Beyond core smart grid technology, there is interest in big data applications that support enhanced functionality and understanding of the entire energy system – from major generation and transmission to the building and appliance level. Additional applications could include, converging various aspects of energy efficiency and demand response programs for maximizing local energy resources.
