4 FAQs about [Smart grid technologies Falkland Islands]
What is a smart grid?
A Smart Grid is an electricity network which automatically monitors the flows of energy and is able to adjust to changes in both supply and demand accordingly. Driven by ambitious energy policy, Europe’s energy sector is experiencing severe transformations.
Why are smart grids important?
The development of Smart grids are an important prerequisite for the transition towards a clean, affordable and reliable energy system. Through Smart grids, peak demand can be reduced and the energy grid can be stabilized. Therefore, the development of market ready technologies that facilitate this transition are important.
What is the Smart Islands energy system (Smile) project?
Therefore, the development of market ready technologies that facilitate this transition are important. The Smart Islands Energy System (SMILE) project will demonstrate nine different smart grid technologies on three different islands. The end goal of the project is to foster the market introduction of these nine technologies. What is a smart grid?
What role do smart islands play in decarbonizing the economy?
Overall, they will have a fundamental role in decarbonizing the economy. The Smart Islands Energy Systems (SMILE) project will develop nine smart grid solutions in three large-scale pilot projects in different regions of Europe with similar topographic characteristics but different policies.
