Smart grid initiatives in india

Abstract

About 3.4% of worldwide energy utilization is taking place in India, a better way of serving energy needs with an increase in reliability and decrease in gap between demand and supply is very important. To meet those conditions and enable the unification the information communication technology and renewable energy sources, India has to restructure its energy distributing structure. Smart grid, i.e., the renovation of the power grid is a developing combination of different technologies planned at submitting an extreme change in the electricity grid. The segments of automated grid and its necessity in the Indian situation have been examined. This work encloses for accelerating the smart grid formation, and many facilitator projects introduced by the Government of India. Further, a complete assessment of Indian grid automation motivation and adventures is presented. Further for smart grid formation, the potential barriers and solutions are analyzed. This paper emphasizes the automation of the present power grid for producing assured and clean energy.
