Computational intelligence for smart grid optimization and planning

There are some of the following factors in smart grid

1. Smart metering : Here a continuous information exchanging of real time data will be involved from consumer to the main data base. Data base will come to know the power consumed by the each consumer, power consumed by the each distribution transformer, power loss happening in particular transmission line, Hook line Activity for a particular location,Google Map facility of that particular location where power theft activity going on.

2. Online bill payment facility: If any consumer unable to give bill in due time then automatically his power will cut off from the meter itself.

3. Real time power management scenario with GPS facility .
