Adoption of smart grids or distribution automation is the need of the hour.
Solar power in the form of distributed rooftop generation will have a significant role in providing smart cities with an environmentally sustainable power supply. Distribution automation can provide an excellent way to integrate power from renewable and traditional sources, by scheduling each energy source to optimise value.
It also has the possibility to identify customer outages before individual customers call the utility to report them.
Smart water utilities, new automated systems that can interpret data from factors such as water source, pump efficiency to estimate customer usage and making billing more efficient and accurate.
Internet of Things remote meter reading ,share communications infrastructure. are examples of where utilities could collaborate to leverage the investment costs between utilities implementing similar functions. Network convergence lowers the operational and maintenance costs of supporting mission critical infrastructure, while providing scalability.
Application of data analytics and management programs will allow utility managers to make smarter operating decisions and efficiently deliver on the business goals of the utility enterprise.
Improving the efficiency of utilities, which in turn would make communities more adaptive, resilient and sustainable, is the key to development of 'Smart Cities'. With a smartphone in the hand of every Indian in near futuer, the prospect of a cloud-controlled infrastructure platform would pave the way for every urban citizen to utilise resources in the most optimal manner, heralding an era of a smart, responsible and an environment citizen
