ABSTRACT
Smart Grid (SG) technology highly thrives on the use of sophisticated Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). In this paper we present a few recently popular use cases from within the smart grid parlance and demonstrate how ICT technologies are intricately woven around such cutting edge applications. Since, there exists a wide range of sub domains for energy management archetypes within the SG domain, we restrict ourselves to such applications that deal with energy management of residential consumers only. We present the high level architecture for these applications, highlight the variety of ICT innovations required by them. In this paper, the applications dealt with range from a stringent direct load control (DLC) scheme that offers a centralized grid-side control for power management to two schemes that are much customer-premise oriented, market-driven that provide application-level scheduling, one extracted from literature and another being a modified version which we proposed in an earlier work. This paper also provides intuitive comparison of ICT facilities required for these related applications.
