• No one defining feature, no silver bullets.• No “now it is complete” moment.• As much a change in mindset as introduction of technology.• Will more and more include players outsider traditional network providers – telcos (Telstra,
Optus), IT HW and SW (IBM, Google), and specialist solutions companies.• Our current electricity network (especially in Australia) already has a great many aspects of
the smart grid in place, with continuing improvements and additions.• But! – Much at HV and high power, little at LV and low power. At the trunk and branches,
not yet at the leaves.

Michael E. Porter and James E. Heppelmann, Harvard Busines Reviews:
Smart, connected products are changing how value is created for customers, howcompanies compete, and the boundaries of competition itself. These shifts will affectvirtually every industry, directly or indirectly.
• Electricity is a connected product• Smartness is creating a non-commodity• The value is shifting to the customers (Prosumers)• Competition is changing in the electricity sector• The electricity sector is heavily impacted
Is every “thing” now going SMART?

A.Toffler: Third Wave (1980): Mass Customization (M-C): Mass customization is mass production of customized products. Bring customers into the value chain by involving the customers in production. Value sharing and prosumer oriented.
• The prosumer is inevitably an energy market participant• The prosumer is an economically motivated entity• A potential co-player or an adversary to the establishment• A collection of prosumers can execute significant market power

A Strong Grid
CRICOS Provider Number: 03567C | Higher Education Provider Number: 14008 | RTO Provider Number: 51971
The smart grid requires advanced control at both component and system levels. Different non-linear controls, such as back-stepping control, feedback linearization, model predictive control, and sliding mode control are applied to control DERs, and their grid integration.
Advanced Control is Needed
CRICOS Provider Number: 03567C | Higher Education Provider Number: 14008 | RTO Provider Number: 51971
As speedy communication facilities, such as fibreoptic, microwave, GSM/GPRS, 3G/4G are becoming the integral parts of the functioning smart grid, the integration of Artificial Intelligence in smart grid applications is becoming simple and feasible.
