Smart grid is referred as the quantum leap from the traditional grid. This arises due to various challenges such as complications in power grid, demand for reliable system, increased security and efficiency as well as the future which demands sustainability. In this paper all the challenges involved in the transformation or integration of traditional grid with the smart grid has been elaborated. There is demand for response to the change in load, integrating the renewable energy resources and storage equipment. The reliability can be increased further by mixing all these resources ideally and thus leading to the requisite net demand. A framework is given that solves all the challenges and also meets the demand of modern measures related to cyber-security. Thus this is an important part for the success of implementation of smart grid. The requisite of the smart grid are also mentioned and discussed properly.
