A Systems View of the Modern Grid - Advanced Control Methods
Description
This 22-page white paper from NETL's Modern Grid Initiative provides an overview of the advanced control systems necessary to create a Smart Grid. It defines those systems as "are the devices and algorithms that will analyze, diagnose, and predict conditions in the modern grid and determine and take appropriate corrective actions to eliminate, mitigate, and prevent outages and power quality disturbances." It summarizes the current state of advanced control, suggests future developments, considers the benefits and explains the barriers to deployment.
From fires in Philadelphia to firearms in Texas, smart meter associated flare-ups make the news weekly. And it makes us wonder: If you could turn back the clock and rethink the whole smart grid rollout, would you do it differently? And if so how? That's this week's topic in our discussion forum.
