Abstract

Smart Grid is significantly being initiated in all fields due to their extensive use of IT, monitoring, protection, and automation control. Safety, integrity,  privacy and dependability of data with long-term sustainability using green sources of energy. Ensuring perfection in their implementation is a herculean task amidst varying environments. This paper sketches and highlights about the scope of implementing reliable, secure, error-controlled fault-tolerant techniques in Electric Grid-systems. Thus, the paper talks about the sub-units of Smart Grid systems. The discussions on opportunities due to nanotechnology and incorporation of FPGAs are part of this paper. Hence, the design of this paper is well thought-out as the critical focal junction in enhancing the future in design of Smart Grid systems.
