Abstract
The monitoring and controlling of grid-related activities using advanced digital communication and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) for distributed generation systems is termed the smart grid. This chapter considers all the parts of the smart grid, like power generation, transmission, distribution, energy storage systems, integration of renewable energy sources, integration of electric vehicles, and AMI. Since the conventional grid has been obsolete and does not give an insight into the energy consumption pattern, no integration of the distributed generation to the grid is involved. Each component of the smart grid system is getting more popular every year. Governments around the world are investing and funding smart grid projects at the initiative level and advanced level. Various countries are developing smart cities and smart grids with the representation of the feature of the smart grid. This chapter gives an insight into the status of the smart grid in different countries of the world. The status of the components of the smart grid from 2010 to 2020 is also given in this chapter.
