Abstract

Power System or Grid is defined as the collection of group of devices, components that make a physical system to generate, transmit and distribute electricity to the end users. Complexity of power system has grown tremendously in the last few decades, facing new challenges during its operation. In order to meet some of these challenges there is a definite need of automation which helps in automatically operating & controlling the power system under various circumstances. The new era of smart grid in the 21st century has made automation really a need to operate grid under the dynamics of rapid load changes, making the system more time sensitive towards faults and failure modes. Automation being one of the critical components in realizing smart grid, this paper tries to present an overview of grid automation technology trend from generation to distribution over the past few years and future opportunities& challenges.
