TL;DR: In this paper, the challenges and opportunities of communications research in the areas of smart grid and smart metering are discussed, and the key communications challenges for realizing interoperable and future-proof smart grid/metering networks, smart grid security and privacy, and how some of the existing networking technologies can be applied to energy management.

TL;DR: Some of the key communications challenges for realizing interoperable and future-proof smart grid/metering networks, smart grid security and privacy, and how some of the existing networking technologies can be applied to energy management are focused on.

TL;DR: In this article, a game theoretic consumption scheduling framework based on the use of mixed integer programming (MIP) to schedule consumption plan for residential consumers is presented. But the optimization framework incorporates integration of locally generated renewable energy in order to minimize dependency on conventional energy and the consumption cost.

TL;DR: A dynamic game theoretic optimization framework is provided to formulate the optimal charging problem and will provide an optimal charging strategy for the EVs to proactively control their charging speed in order to minimize the cost of charging.

TL;DR: Novel solutions and analyses of monitoring and management functionalities have strong requirements for communication latency, reliability, and security and are presented for the SUNSEED scenario, where smart grid ICT solutions are offered.
