Abstract
This chapter presents an overview of smart grid (SG) standards; new standardization studies, SG policies of some countries, and some important standards for SG. Most countries and industrial organizations have understood the crucial role of SG standards and they have taken big steps to develop these standards. Several national and international organizations created working groups to develop SG standards worldwide. The chapter introduces some of the important organizations for SG standardization. The main purpose of the US government's energy policy is to provide energy supply at low cost and to protect the environment while doing so. German SG roadmap focuses on the development of SGs information and communication technologies infrastructure, taking national and international standards into account. Important aspect of the SG is cyber security since the communication medium is a crucial layer in the SG and this layer is vulnerable to cyber‐attacks.
