Abstract
Both world's population and energy consumption per capita are projected to double in 2050 by recent studies.In the meantime,the power grids are aging according to recent reports.This represents a strong impetus,necessity and opportunity for grid modernization.Grid modernization represents a win-win-win situation for consumers,grid operators/utilities,and the environment.Six basic characteristics of a modern power grid are discussed,which are electronic,fractal,structured,fault-tolerant,resilient and asynchronous.This paper presents a unique realistic vision for the modern grid architecture that is physically realizable with today's stateof the-art technologies.It is shown that we can meet the world's challenge in energy demand by optimally managing capacities in generation,transmission and distribution,and behind the meter using power electronics and systems (PEAS) technology.关键词
