摘要：The paper presents various aspects of the implementation of Smart Grids from the distribution system operator standpoint.It discusses legal conditions of the Smart Grids implementation and their impact on the implementation timing.It describes the current state of the distribution grid and operations management systems infrastructure,indicating the desired direction of their development.It describes the preferred model of interrelations between grid operators and other key stakeholders,especially in the context of the expected establishment of balancing areas.It points out to the relevance of standardization and to the assurance of security of implemented Smart Grid solutions.It also specifies the barriers,which in the authors’ opinion could impede the Smart Grids deployment.
