Smart grid (SG) properties and challenges: an overview

Abstract The electric power system is undergoing considerable changes in operation, maintenance, and planning as a result of the integration Renewable Energy Resources (RERs). transition to smart grid (SG), which employs advanced automation control techniques, brings with it new difficulties possibilities. This paper provides an overview next-generation grids by presenting most current cutting-edge developments SG sector. discusses benefits, drawbacks, prospects grids. integrating RERs into grid, well alternative energy storage solutions, are discussed. unpredictable nature resources has impact on RER output. critical dealing RERs’ ensuring smooth reliable supply load demand. Smart systems provide number problems possibilities terms developing, integrating, implementing electrical that incorporate network communication technologies, important privacy security concerns for various components within grid. also shows influence SGs distributed generation, comparative analysis cars (EVs), including classification, i.e., battery, hybrid vehicles, challenges EV technology. A discussion protection their resolution included.
