What is Smart Grid?
• Varies in definition and scope • No “one-size fits all” definition • Must be adapted and configured for all contributors to energy chain • Vision for electricity delivery system of the future
Generation Transmission Distribution Substation Consumer
Convergence of Information and Telecommunications Across Energy Value Chain
New York’s Smart Grid
Resilient
Flexible
Efficient
Affordable
• Reduces costs
• Spurs economic growth
• Promotes environmental goals
• Increases security
Investment results in substantial benefits and meets NY’s energy challenges
The Consortium is a gathering place for
the leading ideas in grid technology as
New York’s grid is modernized.
A unique public-private partnership comprised of major utilities, global-
scale technology developers, research institutions, and government
entities.
