The electricity distribution industry is facing unprecedented array of challenges ranging from a supply-demand gap, improper 24×7 power supply to rising costs. The distribution network today has become vulnerable and is increasingly governed by bi-directional power flows and fluctuating voltages determined by customer load & generation. Left with an ageing infrastructure, the conventional distribution network needs an upgrade and the smart energy (comprising of smart grids, smart meters, micro grids, etc.) phenomenon is the way forward. Effective implementation of the smart energy involves advanced distribution network automation integrating the power network with ICT technologies and electronic devices. Such automation demands adequate power quality to guarantee the necessary compatibility between all equipment connected to the smart grid.
The effective transition from the existing energy distribution network towards a more efficient and reliable one by means of the smart energy is expected to bring changes in the way utilities operate in present era. But, this future comes at a cost and with immense challenges along the way. It requires capital investment in transforming the grid from an electro-mechanical system to a fully automated system. Its full potential requires much to happen on many different fronts. Utilities face tough dilemmas on the timing of investment, choice of technology partners, how to maximize the cost-benefit, etc. An adequate power quality guarantees the necessary compatibility between all equipment connected to the grid. Power quality, therefore, is an important issue for the successful and efficient operation of existing as well as future grids.
