More on GE's "Green" Smart Grid

The new system of smart grid technologies was designed to significantly improve the network company’s ability to manage big network emergencies and help it to restore power faster when outages occur.
 This system incorporates an electronic network diagram and will help reduce the number of power outages, increase the speed of recovery from disruptions, and keep consumers better informed when the lights do go out.  The company’s goal is to improve operational efficiency by streamlining the day-to-day operation and maintenance of the network and by providing valuable and timely information to manage outages effectively.
One of the innovations   is an outage management system, which will help automatically re-route power when an outage occurs, dispatch crews and help operators make better decisions for faster power restoration.
