A grid modernization project refers to the comprehensive effort to upgrade and transform an existing electrical power grid into a more advanced, efficient, reliable, and sustainable infrastructure. The primary goal of grid modernization is to meet the evolving needs of the electricity system, adapt to changing energy landscapes, and address challenges such as increasing demand, renewable energy integration, electrification of transportation, and the need for more resilient power systems. SDN can play a significant role in better managing grid modernization projects, including battery storage, wind, solar, EV charging, and other distributed energy projects.
