IT for greening
In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on developing new technologies that will provide for a more sustainable future for our society. In this context, new Information and Communication technologies (broadly known as “IT for greening”) hold particular promise in the design of the sustainable systems of tomorrow. Since a significant portion of global energy use (and more specifically electricity use) continues to depend on traditional sources such as coal and natural gas, the use of novel IT methods for the “greening of energy” has emerged as an important research area.
Two broad technology trends for greening.
First, there is a trend towards making the electric grid smarter, greener and more efficient. The future smart electric grid will benefit from numerous technologies, including net metering, demand response, distributed generation from intermittent sources such as solar and wind, active control of power flows, enh
