Initially, a postmortem review of Pakistan's power sector was performed for finding the power demand of the power distribution sector. The key issues and challenges are identified for the deployment of smart grid in Pakistan's electric network and suggested possible approaches in this regard.
Smart networks like IEEE 802.11 based wireless LAN, IEEE 802.15 based ZigBee, IEEE 802.16 based WiMAX, DASH 7, Power Line Communication (PLC), and 3G/4G GSM are required for the reliable and uninterruptible power transmission in smart transmission grid [ 72 ]. In Pakistan, outdated controlling methods are equipped in the system.
For the deployment of Smart Grid, modern devices are required like Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) and advance power electronics devices to detect the fault accurately and make the system efficient and more reliable [ 69 ]. The economic growth of Pakistan has been plunged dramatically.
The proposed smart grid model is helpful for the Government of Pakistan in making policies related to the sustainable environment and low-cost energy solutions. Fig. 8 presents the synopsis of proposed smart grid model.
