A new sense of urgency has been brought to all energy issues, including the power grid. Reliable and efficient grid operation is critical to society and oil dependency and environmental concerns drive the power industry to implement sustainable energy portfolios. As “Smart Grid” technologies are required to manage grid complexity, there have been a number of “smart grid” deployment projects world-wide. This presentation addresses the following topics: (1) Emerging Trends in Energy Investments (2) Holistic Smart Grid Approach (3) Challenges Requiring Smart Grid (4) Experiences with deploying smart grid projects.
