Introduction to Smart Grid
The PES and IAS Chapters will sponsor a technical seminar on the topic of Introduction to Smart Grid. The session will be held on Friday, May 29, 2015 at PSE&G’s Hadley Road Facility, 4000 Hadley Road, South Plainfield, NJ 07080-1192.
Topic:
This talk will explain the real meaning and scope of Smart Grid. It will set the stage by comparing how existing power grid is different from the smart grid, and what future generations (1stG, 2ndG and 3rdG) of smart grid would bring. It will highlight features of intelligent self healing transmission system. It would also explain the role of communication networks in achieving a vision of future smarter transmission framework. The talk would also elucidate the importance of Energy Management Systems (EMS), and emerging trends in this area. EMS are important as they provide consumers with information about their energy consumption patterns and help them adopt energy-efficient behavior. This behavior consequently enables the utility companies in load management on a distribution network"
