Abstract: This paper deals with smart grid concept and its reliability in presence of renewable energies. Around the globe an adjustment of electric energy is required to limit CO2 gas emission, preserve the greenhouse, limit pollution, fight climate change and increase energy security. Subsequently renewable energy expansion is the real test for designers and experts of smart grid system. This initiative has made significant progress toward the modernization and growth of the electric utility infrastructure and aims to integrate it into today’s advanced communication era, both in function and in architecture. The study is focused on the difference between a conventional grid and a smart grid concept and the integration of renewable energy in a smart grid system where grid control is a must for energy management. Assuring a good grid reliability, taking the right control measures in order to preserve continuous electricity supply for the customers are challenges highlighted in the present paper.
