Abstract

Great efforts are being made all over the world towards the promotion of clean energy for environmental protection and scheduling energy consumption pattern to meet its increasing demand. The grid is to be modified or upgraded to promote clean energy, control the energy consumption pattern and bring security to grid. The smart grid will fulfil these requirements. The developments in information and communication technology support the smart grid vision. Sensor and control technologies also support the up-gradation of existing grid to smart grid. There are many challenges and issues in the implementation of smart grid. This paper presents challenges and issues in smart grid concept with solutions.
