Smart Grid Communication: Technical History and Future Development Trends

Abstract

Advancements in power system intelligence and the integration of emergent technologies have significantly transformed grid communication needs. This paper conducts a thorough analysis of developments within this pivotal area. Examined is the function of communicative solutions in facilitating real-time observation, management, and harmonization within smart energy systems. Discussed are how techniques including the Internet of Things, fifth generation cellular technology, artificial intelligence, and distributed ledger systems are integrating to reshape the domain of intelligent grid interconnectivity. Moreover, difficulties such as cyber risks and interworking capabilities are explored. Via a comprehensive evaluation of contemporary works and practical applications, this paper illuminates the present condition and forthcoming path of intelligent system communications within the energy sector.
