“Such requirement enables the smart grid to be able to realise smart grid applications, such as automated meter reading, real-time pricing, distribution automation, demand response and electric vehicle charging applications,” it explains. It also offers a more reliable, secure and interoperable communication network for these smart devices, enabling utilities, like Eskom, to extend their reach deep into the field devices and last mile of the grid.
