# 42 U.S.C. § 17381 - Statement of policy on modernization of electricity grid
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
It is the policy of the United States to support the modernization of the Nation’s electricity transmission and distribution system to maintain a reliable and secure electricity infrastructure that can meet future demand growth and to achieve each of the following, which together characterize a Smart Grid:
|
||
|
||
(1) Increased use of digital information and controls technology to improve reliability, security, and efficiency of the electric grid.
|
||
|
||
(2) Dynamic optimization of grid operations and resources, with full cyber-security.
|
||
|
||
(3) Deployment and integration of distributed resources and generation, including renewable resources.
|
||
|
||
(4) Development and incorporation of demand response, demand-side resources, and energy-efficiency resources.
|
||
|
||
(5) Deployment of “smart” technologies (real-time, automated, interactive technologies that optimize the physical operation of appliances and consumer devices) for metering, communications concerning grid operations and status, and distribution automation.
|
||
|
||
(6) Integration of “smart” appliances and consumer devices.
|
||
|
||
(7) Deployment and integration of advanced electricity storage and peak-shaving technologies, including plug-in electric and hybrid electric vehicles, and thermal-storage air conditioning.
|
||
|
||
(8) Provision to consumers of timely information and control options.
|
||
|
||
(9) Development of standards for communication and interoperability of appliances and equipment connected to the electric grid, including the infrastructure serving the grid.
|
||
|
||
(10) Identification and lowering of unreasonable or unnecessary barriers to adoption of smart grid technologies, practices, and services.
