Description
The APEC energy ministers instructed the APEC Energy Working Group (EWG) “to start an APEC Smart Grid Initiative (ASGI) to evaluate the potential of smart grid capabilities to support the integration of intermittent renewable energies and energy-management approaches in buildings and industry.” This report directly supports the ASGI Phase 1: Survey of Smart Grid Status and Potential of Smart Grid. The report also builds upon a series of APEC projects undertaken by the APEC Energy Working Group and its Expert Group on New and Renewable Energy Technologies that were developed to support calls from APEC Leaders and Energy Ministers to promote the development and utilization of APEC energyefficiency and renewable-energy resources.
