Abstract :
Two important technologies for smart city development are Smart Grid (SG) and Internet of Things (IoT). A smart grid is a data communication network that is on top of power grids and contributes to its efficiency by collecting and analyzing data from different parts of the grid. The Internet of Things, by connecting things and people to the Internet, provides access to them at any time and any place. The smart grid controls, monitors, and analyzes the power grid by using many devices that are located throughout the power grid. The smart grid, using the Internet of Things, can connect these devices and automate them and track their performance. In this article, a brief review of the architectures, technologies, applications and challenges of using IoT in SG is discussed.
