“…Lead acid batteries have been using from last few decades and they are well suited for various on-grid applications. They are robust and less sensitive to application conditions, and they have low cost per kWh [28]. Lithium-ion battery is one of the most widely applied battery technologies for ESSs, but their cost is approximately $ 1/Wh, makes them to the slot of most expensive of battery technologies.…”

The development smart grids have made the power systems planning and operation more efficient by the application of renewable energy resources, electric vehicles, two-way communication, self-healing, consumer engagement, distribution intelligence, etc. The objective of this paper is to present a detailed comprehensive review of challenges, issues and opportunities for the development of smart grid. Smart grids are transforming the traditional way of meeting the electricity demand and providing the way towards an environmentally friendly, reliable and resilient power grid. This paper presents various challenges of smart grid development including interoperability, network communications, demand response, energy storage and distribution grid management. This paper also reviews various issues associated with the development of smart grid. Local, regional, national and global opportunities for the development of smart grid are also reported in this paper.

This paper presents an overview of smart grid (SG) technology features such as two-way communication, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) system, integration of renewable energy, advanced storage techniques, real time operation and control, data management and processing, physical and cyber security, and self-healing, etc. The SG technology allows twoway communications for better reliability, control, efficiency and economics of the power system. With these new SG technologies, consumers have many energy choices, such as use of renewable energy, usage management, flexible rates, electric vehicles (EVs), etc. The requirement of these technologies is the real time operation, and the SG accommodates this realtime operation and control. SG technology allows distributed generation through demand response and energy efficiency technologies to shed the load demand. However, it’s very difficult to adopt these changes to the conventional grids. Utility companies, governments, independent system operators (ISOs) and energy regulatory commissions need to agree on the scope and time frame of these changes.

Abstract-Smart grids are the future of Indian power sector and would go a long way in reducing environmental impact and tackling the major challenges faced like technical and commercial losses, chronic supply-demand gap and frequent blackouts. Transforming the existing electric infrastructure through a smart grid is the way forward to ensure efficient and reliable power supply, and achieve sustainable development. The Government of India has identified and initiated a number of remarkable steps towards a more reliable, resilient, cost-effective and interactive power grid. This paper aims at providing a detailed view of the background and current status of the major smart grid initiatives and projects in India, along with a few suggestions for the successful way ahead.Keywords-advanced metering infrastructure; distributed energy resources; dynamic pricing; electric vehicles; peak load management; personal power plants; smart home energy management; street light automation; smart grid I. INDIAN POWER SECTOR-CURRENT SCENARIOIndia is world's sixth largest energy consumer, accounting for almost 4 % of the total energy consumption in the world. The country has been increasingly adding to its capacity over the last few years, with total installed capacity growing to 243GW during the year 2014 [2], of which only 12% comes from renewable energy sources. Coal and gas are the most popular sources with a share of 58% and 9% respectively. The dependence on imported oil is currently about 75%, which is expected to increase to 80% by 2016-17. As far as gas is concerned, the import rate is currently 19%, which is expected to increase to 28% by 2016-17. Similarly, coal import is expected to rise from about 90 million tons at present to over 200 million tons in 2016-17. Due to the increasing coal and gas supply storage, average plant load factor (PLF) for thermal capacity in India has considerably declined from 70% in 2012-2013 to 65.5% in 2013-14 [2]India"s being one of the fastest growing economies with its GDP growth projected over 8%, the installed capacity requirement of the country shall be around 685GW by the year 2030 [4]. According to the estimates of the Planning Commission, during twelfth five year plan period (2012-13 to 2016-17) for a GDP growth of 9% per year, energy supply has to grow at 6.5% per year. During the year 2013-14, the peak demand met was approximately 130GW with a shortage of 4.3% where as the total energy availability was 877 Giga units with a shortage of 4.2% [2]. In order to meet the increasing requirement of electricity, massive addition to the installed generating capacity in the country is required. While planning the capacity addition program, the overall objective of sustainable development has to be kept in mind. It is very obvious that the far-reaching goals of the Indian power system can be attained by smart grids which can help in improving the efficiency and optimize performance within the sector. II.
