Abstract
India has the 3rd largest Electricity transmission and distribution network in the world. However, India faces a number of challenges like inadequate access to electricity, supply shortfalls, huge network losses, poor quality, reliability and theft. Smart Grid would address these issues and transform the existing grid into a more efficient and reliable one that would help in providing electricity access to all. The smart metering infrastructure is a major component of smart grid and this will enhance efficiency and reliability through use of smart/advance sensors, modern communication infrastructure, metering technologies, and energy management solutions for current electric power system. In India, government has taken up initiative for reforming distribution system. This paper discusses the ongoing initiative taken up by government and roadmap for smart metering deployment for Indian smart grid.
