Description

This research service analyzes the European substation automation market and the impact of smart grid. Substation automation is an integral part of the smart grid installation across Europe. Incorporation of intelligence in the substation devices, and automating this operation using said intelligence is called substation automation. Automation of substations enables distribution automation which enables the adoption of future products and systems that are part of the distribution infrastructure, such as distributed generation, that is connected directly to the grid, electric vehicles, and Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI).
