IEEE Smart Grid Research: Communications

This IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications: 2030 and Beyond Roadmap is a high-level supplement of the full vision document IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications: 2030 and Beyond. Communication is a major enabling technology for the Smart Grid. We believe that the power grid will tend to utilize advances in communications since the data exchange requirements will scale up for the Smart Grid. Smart Grid communication will help to improve demand forecasting, enable self-healing from power disturbance events, facilitate active participation by consumers in demand-response mechanisms, and provide resilience against physical and cyber attacks. Smart Grid communication will also help to improve quality of power, allow easy integration of renewable energy sources into the grid, foster innovation to enable new products, services, and markets, assist in optimization of assets, and improve operating efficiency.
