Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the Smartgrid paradigm. This includes the basic architecture, key feature, Advantages, disadvantages and challenges to its adoption. The accelerating installation of renewable generation has made the requirement for a revised electrical power system design more pressing. Based on specific configurations, appropriate rules and regulation will then need to be developed. The Smartgrids can meet the cost, efficiency, and environmental benefits; and the demanding requirements for security, quality, reliability, and availability benefits of on-site generation, achieved by incorporating modern controls and operating with a degree of autonomy. This will also useful for the reduction of CO2 emission.
