Smart grids change the business model of power companies for the benefit of the end consumer. Today, one of the challenges facing the electricity sector in Peru is meeting the demand and energy consumption of society due to urban and industrial growth. This research aimed to analyze the current situation of smart power grids; as well as the viability of the implementation of projects of these networks taking into account the restrictions and considerations within the legal framework in the Peruvian territory. The relevance of these projects will provide electricity to less favored sectors of society and will make current services more efficient. The research is based on a hermeneutical study structured in three stages. First, an analysis of the implementation in Peru. Second, challenges to implement Smart grids in Peru. Third, regulations for the implementation of Smart grids. Therefore, it is concluded that the implementation of Smart Grids must be part of the government's public management policy, taking into account the advantages, vulnerabilities and an appropriate form of regulation in the implementation of these new technologies.
