This 23-page white paper is part of a series produced by NETL's Modern Grid Initiative. It explains one of the Smart Grid's chief benefits -- namely, the ability to isolate and restore problems with little or no human intervention. It discusses continuous self-assessments and the benefits of a networked design with multiple energy sources.
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. Please join in.
