Abstract: | This project intends to approach the Smart Grid in a fully-integrated systems approach across four retail operating companies: Alabama Power, Georgia Power, Gulf Power, and Mississippi Power. Southern Company demonstrates a more complete model of a Smart Grid by incorporating an integrated distribution management system (IDMS), renewable energy generation including photovoltaic (PV), landfill gas and wind, energy storage at transformer and substation level, an intelligent universal transformer, advanced distribution operational measures, customer response to dynamic pricing in two different demographic regions, and new communications applications.
