-Increase of electric appliances/ electrification of many devices- EV included-distance is far from users due to the traditional sources of energy- coal, gas, hydro-integration of distributed resources – moving beyond the traditional centralised structure to a dynamic grid with many sources of energy-vital systems like hospitals/air traffic control
Smart grid – future electric grid, two way communication, self-monitoring, self-healing-disconnects itself from the main grid in case of blackouts, able to sustain the neighbourhood-low voltage- is close to the loads-distributed renewable sources integration
-close to consumers because it makes use of micro sources available in the nearness of the consumers, therefore reducing the power transmission losses-adds to the traditional power plants therefore increasing the total electricity provision-in case one source of energy is lacking other can compensate, or in worst circumstances rely on the storage capability-isolates itself from the main grid if malfunctions/blackouts occur, continuing to provide electricity to the users in islanding mode. Contributes to self-healing of the overall network
