What is the development prospect of smart grid?

The large-scale concentrated outbreak of smog has exposed the environmental problems behind years of sustained high-speed economic growth, forcing heavily polluting industries to speed up structural adjustment, while smart grid and other industries are welcoming new development opportunities. China Smart Grid Industry Market Foresight and Investment Strategic Planning Analysis Report issued by Foresight Industry Research Institute shows that there are four main factors to promote the development of smart grid:

Factor 1: Multifunctional.

Traditional power grid is difficult to meet the diverse needs of users, while smart grid can support distributed power generation with two-way feeding and two-way communication, and can interact with users. Users can choose power selling enterprises according to power quality and electricity price.

Factor 2: Stability

Compared with the traditional power grid, smart grid is more stable, easy to maintain and easy to supervise. According to statistics, the traditional power grid loses hundreds of billions of dollars every year due to power interference, and power grid failures have a great impact and slow recovery, while smart grid can effectively avoid these problems.

Factor 3: Low consumption.

At present, the loss of transmission and distribution is basically above 5%. Taking Japan as an example, the annual transmission loss is $654.38+077 billion. The smart grid research report of Qianwei.com estimates that the annual transmission loss in China is as high as hundreds of billions of dollars. The huge loss of traditional power grid has not met the requirements of energy saving and emission reduction, and the development of smart grid is imminent.

Factor 4: intermittent power supply

With the increasing proportion of wind power and photovoltaic power generation in the total power generation, by 2020, the proportion of wind power and photovoltaic power generation in the United States, Japan and the European Union will exceed 10%, and a large number of intermittent power sources will be connected, and the traditional power grid will face severe challenges.
