Abstract

Smart grid is the new concept that has emerged from traditional grid. The traditional grid is having unidirectional flow of information and also having some problems like power depletion, rising power requirement, healing, consistency and most important safety. Smart grid replaced regular grid and presented bidirectional flow of energy from service providers to end users. Smart grid deals with power production, transmission, distribution and consumption. It employs different gadgets for observing, analyzing, and regulating the network. Different types of sensors, actuators and smart meters are used for analyzing the network using internet connectivity, computerization plus chasing of such gadgets. This all can be implemented only by using Internet of Things (IoT). This new technique relates people with things every moment anywhere. IoT is having a lot of applications such as intelligent transportation, environmental monitoring etc., out of which the most important application promotes the development of smart grid. IoT technique combines all the available resources in communication and electrical power system, enhancing the level of information of power network, and monitors the consumption and usage of existing infrastructures of the present grid. The requirements related to the implementation of smart grid with IoT with suitable devices are discussed in this paper.

Keywords
