Book excerpt: Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a pivotal role in enabling and managing smart grids, which are modernized electrical grids that leverage digital technologies for enhanced efficiency, reliability, and sustainability. ICT serves as the backbone of smart grids, enabling efficient, reliable, and sustainable electricity delivery while supporting the integration of renewable energy sources and promoting active consumer participation in grid operations. The current book treats different aspects of ICT in smart grids. The use of renewable energy sources is the core element of a sustainable energy infrastructure. Therefore, different chapters focus on microgrids. Furthermore, the book presents use cases for the use of microgrids in special environments, such as educational buildings, rural areas, and the housing industries. The Internet of Things (IoT) represents the paradigm to model any intelligent or smart system. In such IoT system, functionalities are organized in overlaid layers, therefore, it is called a “layered model” with a hierarchical structure. The bottom layer covers the nationwide dispatched energy infrastructure. The upper layer can be represented through either the service layer applications or business layers. The book describes and analyzes technologies and solutions for the data layer as well as the communications/networking level.
