)  

The next generation electric grid, also known as smart grid, is expected to
be scalable, reliable, and secure and enhance efficient energy consumption
and deployment of renewable and distributed energy generation. The modern
communications and networking technologies will play a vital role in the
future smart grid by supporting two-way energy and information flow and
enabling efficient monitoring, control, and optimization of different grid
functionalities and smart power devices. The emerging field of smart grid
has introduced several new challenges for the communications and networking
research communities. It has also created new multi-disciplinary research
opportunities and potentials for collaborations with industries.

The aim of this special issue is to collect from academic and industrial
players tutorials and surveys related to latest smart grid and energy
related technologies and architectures. Contributions on major developments
and updates on smart grid systems will be considered.

The topics relevant to this special issue include but are not limited to:

 Communication Architectures and Protocols for Smart Grids
 Smart Grids for Green Communications and Green Computing, Green Data
Centers
 Advanced Metering Infrastructure, Wide-area Monitoring Systems
 Power Line Communications and Physical Layer Design for Smart Grid
Communications
 Integration of Green and Renewable (wind, solar, geothermal, etc.) Energy
Sources
 Smart Grid Cyber Security, Intrusion Detection, False Data Injection
Attacks
 Vehicle-to-Grid Networks and Interconnection of Electric Vehicles
 Home-area Energy Automation, ZigBEE and HomePlug Solutions, Demand
Response
