The concept of smart cities is driven by the need to enhance citizens' quality of life. It is estimated that 70% of the world population will live in urban areas by 2050. The electric grid is the energy backbone of smart city deployments. An electric energy system immune to adverse events, both cyber and physical risks, and able to support the integration of renewable sources will drive a transformational development approach for future smart cities. This article describes how the future electric energy system with 100% electricity supply from renewable energy sources requires the "birth of security and resiliency" incorporated with its ecosystem.
翻译:智能城市的概念是由提高公民生活质量的需要驱动的。据估计,到2050年,70%的世界人口将生活在城市地区。电网是智能城市部署的能源支柱。一个免受网络和物理风险等不利事件影响的电力系统,能够支持可再生能源的整合,将推动未来智能城市的转型发展方针。本篇文章描述了未来拥有100%可再生能源电力供应的电力系统如何需要“安全性和复原力的诞生”与生态系统相结合。
