5. An Electrical Grid that Utilizes Advanced
Communication Monitoring and Control
Technologies to Optimize Energy Efficiency
Reliability and Environmental Sustainability.
6. RenewableENERGY
Smart Grid Technologies Enable the Effective
Management and Distribution of Renewable
Energy Sources. By Leveraging the Internet of
Things (IoT) the Smart Grid Connects a Variety
of Energy Sources to the Electricity Grid.
7. Demand for Electricity is Expected to Rise
as a Result of the Clean Energy Transition
Urban Expansion, and Population Growth.
Smart Grid Technologies Can Meet the
Increased Demand by Making the Grids
More Efficient, Reliable, and Resilient.
8. An Electronic Device that Provides Detailed
Consumption Data Including Smart Grid
Status. Smart Meter Use Encourages Better
Energy Habits, Reduces Electricity Bills, and
Improves Quality of Service (QoS).
9. They Reflect Actual Consumption Instead of an Estimation.

Remote Management Allows for Faster Diagnosis and
Response to Incidents Improving Customer Service.
Better service
They Offer Integration of Renewable Energy Sources Enabling
Them to Supply Electricity and Respond to Demand Spikes.
RE utilization
By Optimizing Capacity, Smart Grids are in a Strong Position to
Meet Increasing Demand and Reduce Blackouts.
MEETING DEMAND
Time-Based Pricing Optimizes Electrical Network Usage by
Shifting Consumption Peaks to Lower Demand Times.

10. Renewable Energy Integration is Complex as it is Intermittent
and Unpredictable.
Issues
Due to their Communication Networks and Big Data Handling,
Smart Grids are More Susceptible to Cyberattacks.
CYBERATTACKS
Significantly Degrades Network Reliability Leading to Service
Slowdown and Connectivity Loss.
PACKET LOSS
They Require Robust Connectivity and Wide Coverage. Poor
Connectivity and Network Performance is a Barrier.
Connectivity
The High Cost of ICTs, Network Infrastructure, and Digital
Talent Requires a Significant Investment.

14. In 2015, Global Energy Interconnection
(GEI) Initiative was Launched to Develop
Connected Grids for the Transmission
and Consumption of Clean, Renewable
Energy Worldwide. GEI is Coordinated
by UNDESA and GEIDCO and Directly
Supports SDGs 7 and 9.
