Who Are The Main Stakeholders in Smart Grid?: Consumers

The document discusses key concepts regarding smart grids including main stakeholders (consumers, workforce, policy makers, environmental groups), drivers (reduction of losses, peak load management), and challenges (increasing energy demand, reliability issues). It also addresses demand response and management techniques in smart grids such as dynamic pricing, direct load control programs, and using smart meters to communicate price changes. The main governing body for smart grids in India is the Indian Smart Grid Forum (ISGF) which aims to improve power quality and reduce losses.
