摘要本文概述了英国智能电网的发展现状。介绍了智能电网的定义、政策和技术驱动因素、激励机制、技术重点以及行业在发展智能电网方面的进展。特别是，低碳网络基金和电力网络创新竞赛项目，以及智能电表的推出，都是详细的。这些投资与智能电表安装相结合，将支持一个更可观察、更可控、更自动化和更集成的电力网络。人们发现，重点主要集中在配电网络以及实时信息流和供应商和消费者之间的互动促进了改进的信息和通信技术，有功功率流管理，需求管理和能源储存。从GB智能电网倡议中学习将为GB和其他国家未来的智能电网发展提供有价值的指导方针。
ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of the current status of the development of the smart grid in Great Britain (GB). The definition, policy and technical drivers, incentive mechanisms, technological focus, and the industry's progress in developing the smart grid are described. In particular, the Low Carbon Networks Fund and Electricity Network Innovation Competition projects, together with the rollout of smart metering, are detailed. A more observable, controllable, automated, and integrated electricity network will be supported by these investments in conjunction with smart meter installation. It is found that the focus has mainly been on distribution networks as well as on real-time flows of information and interaction between suppliers and consumers facilitated by improved information and communications technology, active power flow management, demand management, and energy storage. The learning from the GB smart grid initiatives will provide valuable guidelines for future smart grid development in GB and other countries.
