Abstract :
Whether we call it the smart grid or not, modernization of the country´s
energy infrastructure has gained far more visibility in the last few years
as a convergence of economic, regulatory, and political forces placed it front
and center as a national priority. Just about all stakeholders with a vested
interested in an updated grid understand that the process of grid transformation
is ongoing and will continue to evolve as the industry strives to achieve
higher efficiency and reliability.
