Session 23:
SMART GRID
The smart grid is the next generation electric grid, expected to be scalable, reliable, efficient, and secure, while facilitating the deployment of renewable and distributed energy generation. It is a network that integrates the use of communication technology and electric power infrastructure to improve efficiency of the legacy power grid. Modern communications and networking technologies play a vital role in the smart grid by supporting two-way energy and data flow in order to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery system.
The three major components of the smart grid are (1) the infrastructure system, (2) the management system and (3) the protection system. The infrastructure system supports the underlying energy, information and communication networks for electricity generation, delivery and consumption and advanced metering infrastructure management. The management system supports the ability of the smart grid to provide advanced control services, including utility cost and demand analysis. The protection subsystem provides advanced grid reliability analysis, failure protection and addresses issues of cybersecurity within the smart grid.
Research and development initiatives for the smart grid involve the integration of all three subsystems. In order to promote the development of the smart grid, governments, academia and industry have put a great deal of effort into various research programs. The US Department of Energy (US DoE), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), IEEE, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and various international organizations are all playing a part in smart grid development and standardization.
In this session, the topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Optimized architectures and networking models for smart grid networks
• Green solutions for smart grid communications
• Cybersecurity for the smart grid
• Standardization efforts and regulation
• Resource allocation, co-existence and interoperability of smart grid networks
• Modelling, performance analysis and field trials for smart grid technologies
• Optimized communications models (MAC and routing protocols) for quality of service in the smart grid
• Demand response and dynamic pricing issues
The goal of this session is to provide an encompassing view of the research and development directives in various aspects of smart grid operation with an emphasis on the overlap of various disciplines to solve specific research challenges.
