- The smart grid extends power systems into homes and businesses, creating new security challenges as critical infrastructure connects to less secure networks. - We need accurate models of the smart grid that consider both cyber and physical pathways between components in order to understand vulnerabilities and identify security weaknesses across the integrated system. - A federated approach is needed to both secure the smart grid and model its complex interactions, as the system spans multiple organizations with critical and non-critical functions that must be isolated despite sharing physical infrastructure.
This document discusses cyber security concerns regarding smart grid technology integration. It outlines how increased data sharing and connectivity between new and legacy systems introduces new cyber vulnerabilities. It then summarizes existing cyber security standards from organizations like ISO, NERC, and IEC that can provide frameworks for addressing these vulnerabilities. Finally, it notes challenges integrating new technologies with legacy systems and the need for a strategic roadmap to help guide secure technology adoption.
The presentation discusses smart grid technology, including its attributes, reasons for use, components, users, and how it works. A smart grid uses information technologies to improve how electricity is delivered from power plants to consumers. It allows for two-way interaction between consumers and the grid and integrates new technologies. Key benefits include reduced costs, improved reliability, efficiency and capacity, enabling predictive maintenance and automated operations. Security and privacy are main concerns due to two-way communication and potential for hacking of automated meters. The future of smart grid is uncertain but may become widely used over the long run.
Smart meters have advantages and possible disadvantages like many other products hence discussion is to be made on installation of such meters.
The document discusses smart grids, providing definitions and comparisons to traditional grids. It outlines key features of smart grids like reliability, efficiency, sustainability, and flexibility. Smart meters are defined as measuring electricity use and allowing two-way communication between utilities and customers. Security is an important aspect to protect smart grid data and ensure integrity, availability, and confidentiality. The document reviews recent literature on smart grid techniques and applications in areas like home energy management, electric vehicle charging, and grid control systems.
The document discusses the smart grid, which aims to address issues with today's electrical grid such as blackouts and one-way communication. It introduces the concept of adding "intelligence infrastructure" like smart meters, transmission upgrades, energy storage, and networked appliances. This smart infrastructure enables features like demand response, distributed generation, electric vehicles, optimized asset use, and problem detection. Key components are discussed in more detail, including smart meters, electric vehicles, and potential partners for building smart grid cities. The conclusion outlines how the smart grid facilitates changes to electricity production, transmission and consumption while supporting environmental and customer control goals.
This document provides an overview of smart grids, including their components, advantages, and limitations. A smart grid uses two-way digital communication technology to detect and automatically respond to local changes in usage. It aims to reduce costs and carbon emissions by integrating renewable energy sources. Key components include smart meters for sensing usage, core networks for connectivity between substations, and distribution networks for transmitting data to databases. Advantages are reduced carbon, automated control, and increased efficiency. Limitations include inadequate existing infrastructure and intermittent renewable sources.
