What is Smart Grid ? | Smart Grid Technologies & Applications | Advanced Metering Infrastructure AMI

A smart grid is an electrical grid which includes a variety of operation and energy measures including:
*Advanced metering infrastructure (of which smart meters are a generic name for any utility side device even if it is more capable e.g. a fiber optic router)
*Smart distribution boards and circuit breakers integrated with home control and demand response (behind the meter from a utility perspective)
*Load control switches and smart appliances, often financed by efficiency gains on municipal programs (e.g. PACE financing)
*Renewable energy resources, including the capacity to charge parked (electric vehicle) batteries or larger arrays of batteries recycled from these, or other energy storage.
Energy efficient resources- Sufficient utility grade fiber broadband to connect and monitor the above, with wireless as a backup. Sufficient spare if "dark" capacity to ensure failover, often leased for revenue.
