The Ministry of Power, Government of India, launched the Restructured Accelerated Power Development and Reforms Programme (R-APDRP) in July 2008. Geographic information system (GIS) is an integral part of its implementation, intrinsically indicating that geospatial technologies are slated to soon become a way of life.
India is steadily venturing into renewable energy resources like wind and solar. With such unpredictable energy sources feeding the grid, it is necessary to have a grid that is highly adaptive in terms of supply and demand. A good electric supply is one of the key infrastructure requirements to support overall development, hence, the opportunities for building smart grids in India are immense.
