Practical Experience on WAMS Technology Implementation in Bhutan
With the paradigm shift of power system utilities toward smart-grid technology, the implementation of the Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) becomes indispensable. It enhances the
A Smart Grid Solution to Prevent Brownouts in Bhutan
Students from SERC and the Renewable Energy Student Union (RESU) won a $75,000 EPA grant to implement a Smart Grid device to reduce brownouts on village-scale electrical grids in developing countries. We

the red LED suggest that the red light means the grid electricity is limited and only low power appliances can be used. Bhutan Department of Energy (DoE), this system was piloted in Rukubji, Bhutan, a village of approximately 90 households connected to a micro-hydroelectric system rated at 40 kW. In Rukubji, like many other mini-grids, the power

A Smart Grid Solution to Prevent Brownouts in Bhutan
Students from SERC and the Renewable Energy Student Union (RESU) won a $75,000 EPA grant to implement a Smart Grid device to reduce brownouts on village-scale electrical grids in developing countries. We developed the device, known as GridShare, with support from the EPA''s People, Prosperity, and the Planet (P3) program.
The GridShare solution: a smart grid approach to improve service
The GridShare takes an innovative approach to reducing brownouts by using a low cost device that communicates the state of the grid to its users and regulates usage before severe brownouts occur. This demand-side solution encourages users to distribute the use of large appliances more evenly throughout the day, allowing power-limited systems to
