Abstract:
How will Information and Communication Technologies, or ICT for short, help realize the smart power networks of the future?
This report answers this question, by presenting the key findings of the European project CRISP. It outlines the role of Internet/Web based architectures and standards, and explains the practical potential of advanced technologies such as intelligent agents and electronic markets. It discusses the results of studies on decentralized control, grid operations, and service applications in power networks that will have a high degree of distributed and sustainable energy resources. It summarizes field experiments carried out on fault diagnosis, intelligent load shedding, dependability and security, and automatic supply-demand response.
Thus, this report gives a clear picture of how the grid will evolve as a critical infrastructure in the digital age, and it clarifies the many benefits that ICT has for energy and power.
