Successful deployment of smart grids necessitates experimental validities oftheir state-of-the-art designs in two-way communications, real-time demandresponse and monitoring of consumers' energy usage behavior. The objective isto observe consumers' energy usage pattern and exploit this information toassist the grid in designing incentives, energy management mechanisms, andreal-time demand response protocols; so as help the grid achieving lower costsand improve energy supply stability. Further, by feeding the observedinformation back to the consumers instantaneously, it is also possible topromote energy efficient behavior among the users. To this end, this paperperforms a literature survey on smart grid testbeds around the world, andpresents the main accomplishments towards realizing a smart grid testbed at theSingapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). The testbed is able tomonitor, analyze and evaluate smart grid communication network design andcontrol mechanisms, and test the suitability of various communications networksfor both residential and commercial buildings. The testbeds are deployed withinthe SUTD student dormitories and the main university campus to monitor andrecord end-user energy consumption in real-time, which will enable us to designincentives, control algorithms and real-time demand response schemes. Thetestbed also provides an effective channel to evaluate the needs oncommunication networks to support various smart grid applications. In addition,our initial results demonstrate that our testbed can provide an effectiveplatform to identify energy wastage, and prompt the needs of a securecommunications channel as the energy usage pattern can provide privacy relatedinformation on individual user.
