August 12-14, 2018 | Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Welcome to the official website of the 2018 2nd International Conference on Smart Grid and Smart Cities (ICSGSC 2018) . The conference will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia during August 12-14, 2018. ICSGSC 2018 welcomes articles in the field of Smart Grid and Smart Cities. For the past few years, smart grids have been the main topic of fervent research and development at both industrial and academic level. The smart grid is envisaged to be the next generation electric grid for Smart Cities. It enables the smart integration of conventional power generation, renewable generation, distributed generation, energy storage, transmission, distribution and demand management. The benefits of smart grid include the enhanced reliability and resilience, higher intelligence and optimized control, decentralized operation, higher operational efficiency, more efficient demand management, and better power quality. However, all these prospected transformations also bring with them numerous challenges and opportunities. We warmly invite you to participate in the ICSGSC 2018 program and activities and we are confident that you will find the program enriching, enlightening and rewarding.
