Achieving energy efficiency particularly in Iraq is very critical due to continuous energy crisis since the 1990s. One of the major cities, Basra City faced this crisis since 2003 with energy generation declining by 26.4%. . According to World Watch Institute Estimations, buildings are responsible for 40% of t. . The term ‘energy efficiency’ specifically referring to heating and cooling in buildings is directly related to two factors during the design stage. First, building envelope and second building. . This study compared the performance of energy consumption between conventional system and the proposed IBS system in the same house model in the city of Basra, Iraq. Since it is di. . 4.1.

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 In Pakistan, outdated controlling methods are equipped in the system.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.

Modernization in the electrical grid will bring new economic opportunities and capabilities for the electric utilities in Pakistan and also it provides customers with improved power flow control, easy access to cyber security protection, and data.

Issues and challenges for smart grid implementation in Pakistan The net income of the power sector of Pakistan is encountering a huge shortfall, the main reason of which seems to be the non-technical losses (NTL's). Human manipulations that are mainly external to the system have only added to these losses over the past twenty years [ 42 ].
In this regard, a smart grid model is proposed as per smart grid interoperability (protocols and standards, release 4.0) in Pakistan's electric network as depicts in Fig. 7. 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.
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.
In-depth analysis has been performed by the NIST US DoC on the smart grid and examined that the energy planners, Governments of developing and developed countries, and stakeholders will value the implementation of a smart grid that brings improvements in the seven technical areas as listed in Table 2 [ 4, , , , ]. Table 2.
Modernization in the electrical grid will bring new economic opportunities and capabilities for the electric utilities in Pakistan and also it provides customers with improved power flow control, easy access to cyber security protection, and data.
Discusses the availability of smart technologies such as WCT, ICT, and EST that can integrate the smart grid infrastructure for sustainable operation and evaluated the energy resources in terms of availability. It is found that renewable sources and smart technologies are the best possible solution and are also supportive at grid stations.
