SMART GRID
SMART GRID
An Intelligent Electrical Grid that collect details regarding the
behavior of utilizers and providers, and perform immediate actions in a self-activate mode whenever necessary to enhance reliability, efficiency, economics and sustainability of Generation, Transmission and Distribution on Electricity. Made possible by Information and Communication Technology.
Smart Grid Components
Intelligent Appliances
Ability to choose when to utilize power based on priority.
Smart Power Meters
Provides Two way communication between the utilizers and providers. Assist for Gathering Data, Find out Power cut, Automatic billing and Send repair crew to the particular location earlier.
Smart Substations
Monitor and Control operational datas such as circuit breaker status, power factor enhancement etc.
Smart Distribution
Self healing Self Balancing Self Optimizing Effective tool to monitor and predict cable failures based on real-time data Superconducting cable for long transmission line Smart Generation Optimize Power Generation. Enhance voltage stability, power factor correction and frequency Synchronization automatically based on feedback from various points on grids.
Universal Access
Less expensive and less carbon emission power generation (e.g. hydro plant, wind turbine, solar power etc..) No chemical reaction and high capacity energy storage (SMES & Flywheel)

Worlds first smart grid solution implemented
Faroe Islands Denmark
Danish Energy Company DONG ENERGY and Faroese
Partner SEV demonstrate the Worlds First Smart Grid system on the windy Faroe Island. The Faroe Islands are the first place in the world where a virtual power plant is used to recreate balance in an island power system by automatically decoupling large industrial units from the main power system is less than a second, thereby avoiding systemic block-outs. Technically speaking, the virtual power plants delivers socalled fast frequency demand response.
