Abstract
Smart grid is a new emerging trend as it is more efficient because of its computation process and energy utilization. It provides many benefits due to the communication between the service company and users. Smart grid includes smart metering, which is used to collect the data from the appliances, devices, sensors, etc. and transfer the data to the network, and the data is analyzed for energy consumption. The transmission and distribution of energy; the smart grid architecture; communication technologies like LAN, HAN, and NAN; and security and privacy challenges are discussed in this chapter.
