Generally, the Smart Grid system consists of generators, distribution and transmission, and consumers. Smart Grid gives enhancement in terms of intelligent de-centralized control which also known as internet of energy, consumer empowerment, and smart infrastructure. There are several studies conducted to understand the social impact, in terms of consumer adoption on the smart grid system. The fundamental issues in the Smart Grid are low of awareness, consumer acceptance, management of data collection, and metering. Therefore, this paper gives a focus to understand the consumers' privacy and economic value challenge in Smart Grid implementation.

Besides, the financial smart partnership between government, private sector and community could expedite the implementation of the smart grid. � 2020 Triveni Enterprises. All rights reserved.
