“…A study has been carried out on Puducherry smart grid pilot project, jointly developed by Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd (PGCIL) and Puducherry Electricity Department (PED), to understand its techno-economic aspects [19,20]. The pilot project has completed its interim stage and is operating with a good power quality [21]. Rooftop solar PV systems with net metering facilities were also installed in this pilot project [22] to show-case the integration of clean energy solutions [23][24][25][26][27][28].…”

Smart Grid (SG) a well-known concept being rapidly introduced in the power industry. New transformation of Indian power network has begun with 14 SG pilot projects across the nation. One of such projects has been successfully commissioned in Puducherry. The motive of this research work is to analyze the techno-economic aspects of a smart distribution network before being implemented nation-wide the study case facilitatingefficient planning and deployment of technology. This paper presents techno-economic analysis of Smart Grid via a case study of Puducherry pilot project. Covered in this paper are different components of investment which convey an idea about services and their proposition as well as technical advancements with their benefits. This paper discusses the gain in terms of energy and money saving through different smart technical tools. Payback analysis explains how investment in smart distribution network is justified.

“…The term 'power quality' refers to providing the near sinusoidal voltage and current waveforms for the power system at the rated magnitude and frequency [5]. PQ can be affected by several factors such as voltage and frequency variations, imbalance, interruption, flicker, and harmonics [6][7][8]. Accordingly, PQ is one of the important considerations in the secure and reliable operation of smart grids and it is likely to be impacted by the demand growth for EVs shortly [7].…”

The global warming problem together with the environmental issues has already pushed the governments to replace the conventional fossil-fuel vehicles with electric vehicles (EVs) having less emission. This replacement has led to adding a huge number of EVs with the capability of connecting to the grid. It is noted that the presence of such vehicles may introduce several challenges to the electrical grid due to their grid-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-grid capabilities. In between, the power quality issues would be the main items in electrical grids highly impacted by such vehicles. Thus, this study is devoted to investigating and reviewing the challenges brought to the electrical networks by EVs. In this regard, the current and future conditions of EVs along with the recent research works made into the issue of EVs have been discussed in this study. Accordingly, the problems due to the connection of EVs to the electrical grid have been discussed, and some solutions have been proposed to deal with these challenges.

“…There are various trends of research in PQ (Kappagantu et al, 2015;Aqueveque et al, 2016;Meher and Pradhan, 2010;Faisal et al, 2011;Wang et al, 2017;Nolasco et al, 2019). Kappagantu et al (2015) and Aqueveque et al (2016) published two case studies of PQ analysis based on IEEE, EN50160 and IEC standards. However, neither (Kappagantu et al, 2015) nor (Aqueveque et al, 2016) performed the PQD without human intervention.…”
