“…The same authors address automated topology generation as a further and suggestive study. Research papers and surveys on communication network architectures (e.g., [5]), transmission technologies (e.g., [6], [7], [8], [1]) and smart grid application requirements (e.g., [1]) contribute in the way smart grid infrastructures are designed. However, different applications have different requirements (in terms of data size, latency and reliability measures) on the underlying communication network.…”

In the past, various communication infrastructures and networks, network technologies and topologies, and protocols have been discussed to intelligently interconnect nodes across electric power distribution networks forming a smart grid. Similarly, attempts to esteem bandwidth requirements of smart grid applications under different assumptions were made, by applying models such as the queuing theory. The present paper aims at presenting a conceptual model allowing for the generation and simulation of characteristic communication networks, as part of the communication infrastructure of electric power distribution grids. Feasible input parameters are discussed and fields, where simulation can be used, are presented.

Because electricity is the core of our daily lives, no one denies the massive progress we have reached thanks to such a fossil fuel-based technology. But at the same time, these advancements have costly affected our environment. Consequently, recent trends towards restructuring the electrical grids in a way intended to be more monitored, secured and environmental are brought to the forefront of the scientific research. The attempts of reconfiguring the electric power grids were coined as "smart grid". Basically, the internet, ZigBee, wireless mesh networks, WiMax, 3G, 4G, WiFi and Bluetooth are among the common communication technologies to be adopted in the framework of these smart grids alongside many emergent new technologies like the Microgrids, virtual power plants (VPPs), distributed intelligence techniques, smart metering infrastructure and demand response technology as well as distributed and renewable energy resources are conceived to make our electricity more resilient to attacks and natural disasters. As a result, the security side has become one of the major and critical associated issues. Much attention has been devoted to this domain; so, this paper aims at reviewing some of the potential attacks, threats, vulnerabilities as well as some proposed solutions to reinforce the smart grid's efficiency and reliability.

“…EVs interact with the grid in two modes: Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G), and Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V). Depleted batteries of the EVs are charged in G2V mode, and the EVs supply energy to the grid through its charged batteries in V2G mode [43,44]. The charging time is one of the major issues with EV charging, as well as the deterioration of battery life with the number of charging cycles [45].…”

Abstract:Rising awareness and emergence of smart technologies have inspired new thinking in energy system management. Whilst integration of distributed energy resources in micro-grids (MGs) has become the technique of choice for consumers to generate their energy, it also provides a unique opportunity to explore energy trading and sharing amongst them. This paper investigates peer-to-peer (P2P) communication architectures for prosumers' energy trading and sharing. The performances of common P2P protocols are evaluated under the stringent communication requirements of energy networks defined in IEEE 1547.3-2007. Simulation results show that the structured P2P protocol exhibits a reliability of 99.997% in peer discovery and message delivery whilst the unstructured P2P protocol yields 98%, both of which are consistent with the requirements of MG applications. These two architectures exhibit high scalability with a latency of 0.5 s at a relatively low bandwidth consumption, thus, showing promising potential in their adoption for prosumer to prosumer communication.
