A smart grid is an electricity network that uses digital communication and automation to monitor and manage the flow of electricity efficiently.
It enables two-way flow of power and information between utilities and consumers.
Smart grids use smart meters, sensors, automation and advanced communication to detect faults, balance load, integrate renewable energy and respond to demand in real time. Consumers can monitor and manage their usage.
Self-healing capabilities automatically isolate faults and reroute power, improving reliability and reducing outages.
