A smart grid refers to a new and innovative system of electrical distribution that has the ability to manage and control information and power generation. It is capable of using different power sources to get the energy needed. The smart grid is also capable to store the produced energy that was not used by the consumer. What makes the smart grid really innovative is the shift that one can notice between the old grid and the new one. A smart grid relies more on a two-way communication system between the power supplier and the power consumer. Here the power supplier will produce energy using different energy sources (solar, wind power) based on the information got from the power consumer. Based on REN21’s report (2016), renewable sources contributed 19.2% to humans’ international energy consumption and 23.7% to their generation of electricity in 2014 and 2015, annually. This energy consumption is split as 8.9% returning from ancient biomass, 4.2% as energy (modern biomass, energy and solar heat), 3.9% hydroelectricity and 2.2% is electricity from wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass.
