A Comprehensive Study on IOT Based Smart Grid Technology

Small items and objects have been integrated, networked, and even linked to the Internet, as part of the Internet of Things, to be able to provide improved services for supervision and control. Along with intelligent embedded devices, the Capability to make intelligent decisions, will improve the efficiency of services in a variety of fields, including the smart grid. A smart grid is an electrical power system in which all of the electrical power system’s operations are connected via a smart communication system. It comprises the primary energy generating sources, renewable energy resources, smart metres, and smart appliances. It comprises the primary energy generating sources, renewable energy resources, smart metres, and smart appliances. It makes use of communication technologies to increase fault detection, cut down on power waste, and boost the grid’s self-healing abilities. Smart grids make extensive use of a variety of equipment for grid monitoring, analysis, and control, which are installed in huge numbers at power plants, distribution centres, and customers’ homes. As a result, smart grids need to be connected, automated, and trackable. The Internet of Things (IoT) is used to do this. By incorporating Internet of Things devices (such as smart metres, sensors, and actuators), The Internet of Things assists smart grids by supplying connectivity, automation, and tracking for such gadgets. Throughout the energy generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption processes, systems assist with a variety of network activities. We present a detailed overview of smart grid Internet of Things systems in this study. The open concerns, difficulties, and future research prospects for Internet of Things of smart grid systems are also highlighted in this study.
