Abstract: | This white paper was created by the Power System Engineering Research Center (PSERC). The paper describes a vision and needed steps for reaching a national objective of having a smart grid infrastructure. Demonstrations of a smart grid are needed to identify possible improvements and to show effectiveness from the generation system, to the bulk transmission and distribution networks, and finally to the customer premises. The vision described in this white paper can make a significant contribution to the U.S. DOE’s efforts to lead the nation in developing and deploying a smart grid solution that will efficiently support a low‐carbon energy infrastructure portfolio.
