REVIEW ON SMART POWER DISTRIBUTION NETWORKS: A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTAL APPROACH
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2022, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
Smart power grid distribution network is very paramount in building a sustainable Electricity network for smart grid operations. As stipulated and stated in the agenda 2030 sustainable development goals project (agenda goals; 3, 7, 9, 11, and 13), it’s pertinent to create, research and develop an enabling environment within the power grid horoscope with these agendas in view. This helps the design of reliable and quality distribution system to replace the traditional distribution networks which produce carbons and other harmful chemical substances in to the environment. Recently, the distribution system has been burdened with numerous dynamic loads and energy demands due to the current Covid-19 situation which has brought many to work from home. The Smart distribution network as reviewed in this paper is a critical component and final stage in providing optimum power solutions to customers. Discussed in this paper is the reviews of developmental approaches to smart power distributions, since it networks perform critical functions and bears social responsibility by adopting large and small hydro-dams, solar, wind, and other clean energy sources, for delivering power to its end users safely and effectively.
