WHATISASMARTGRID?
TheSmartGridisasystemforan"intelligentdistribution"ofelectricity,abletoknowtheconsumptionof
thevariousendusersandtomanagethegenerationanddistributionofelectricityaccordingtodemand.
Simplyput,ifinagivenareawehaveapotentialoverloadofenergy,theexcessenergycanberedistributed
tootherareasthatneedit,basedontheactualrequestsfromendusers.
Furthermore,thesoftwarethatrunstheSmartGridmonitorstheelectricalflowofthesystem,integrates
renewableenergyintothenetworkandactivates/suspendstheindustrialordomesticprocessesduring
periodswhenelectricitycostsless/more.
Thesmartgridknowsourrequirementofpowerconsumption.Whenthedemandforelectricityisatits
