Abstract

The global transition from traditional electrical grids to smart grids is well underway: the primary objective of smart grids is to optimize energy flows, achieving improved energy efficiency through better integration of renewable sources, reduced reliance on environmentally harmful production methods, and enhanced utilization of emerging energy technologies. This aims to decrease unnecessary consumption, reducing the difference between the power consumption and the actual user needs. The fundamental and stated goal is to minimize the overall environmental impact of the energy sector.
