Key to the implementation of the smart grid is various communication technologies. The emerging dominance of communication technologies in power systems applications is pivotal to modernizing the conventional grid system.
Much of grid communication is performed over purpose-built communication networks owned and maintained by grid utilities. Broadly speaking, grid communication systems are comprised of multiple transport technologies and protocols carried by a variety of media.
Applying the appropriate communication technology to support grid requirements depends upon many factors beyond just the communication technology, how it is deployed (e.g., architecture) and operations. One method is to start with the grid services or processes needing support.
Implementing the right communication technology effectively supports these requirements. Developing and deploying a robust, secure communications system necessitates a systematic approach that addresses multiple key factors to ensure that the performance requirements of grid operations are met.
