Spotlight on Smart and Strong Power T&D Infrastructure

This case book, prepared by ISGAN Annex 6 (Power T&D System), is a result of a comprehensive process of surveying, analysing and discussing important achievements in the application of smart grid approaches.
Executive Summary of ISGAN Knowledge Exchange on Distributed Generation, Microgrids, and Smart Metering in Bengaluru
Multicriterial decision making: the smart metering case

Since smart grids impacts require new assessment approaches, this report aims at contributing on the debate about the evaluation of costs and benefits of smart grid projects. In particular, the evaluation approach which combines the Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA) and the Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) is employed for evaluating a smart metering infrastructure case study.
Workshop Event Report: Unleashing Smart Grids in Mexico

Executive Summary of Smart Grid Events in Mexico City 17–19 August 2016
Synchrophasor Applications for Wide Area Monitoring and Control
Storage and balancing as key elements for future network planning and electricity markets design

The aim of this report is to analyze the flexibility contribution that identified resources could provide as a contribution towards the achievement of efficient and cost-effective dispatching of the electric system, in presence of an ever increasing penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) which are characterized by a variable generation pattern.
Executive Summary of Smart Grid Events in Mexico City

The purpose of this report is to give an account of a collaborative International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN) and the 21st Century Power Partnership (21CPP) project focusing on Mexico’s path towards smart grids and grid modernization.
Why the TSO-DSO Relationship Needs to Evolve

This article examines the evolving interaction between TSOs and DSOs in the context of increasing electrification and decentralization. Stronger coordination, targeted use of flexibility, and a clear regulatory framework are key to maintaining grid stability and efficiency.
The Role of Smart Grids in Integrating Renewable Energy

Flexible, strong, and smart grids play a crucial role in the integration of variable renewable energy (RE). As high levels of variable RE penetration become increasingly common across power systems, attention to grid operations and planning becomes more important.
Spotlight on Smart and Strong Electric Power Infrastructure

This paper summarize a number of smart-grid cases from the case book within ISGAN Annex 6: Power T&D Systems.
