The scopeof the smart grid is quite broad and covers the delivery infrastructure, the end-use systems andrelated distributed energy resources, management of the generation and delivery infrastructure atvarious levels of control centers, information networks, and the financial and regulatoryenvironment.From the perspective of fundamental technologies, the DOE classified the key technologies thatenable the smart
operations and pieces of research equipment. The outages were due to partial or complete loss of utility supply and malfunctions of aged cables and other distribution components at IIT. The lack of system redundancy and the unavailability of replacement components prolonged the outage durations at IIT. In 2005, the Galvin Electricity Initiative led a campaign to implement a perfect power system at IIT with the objective of establishing a micro grid that is environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, robust, and resilient, with self-healing capability. The micro grid at IIT would empower the campus consumers to control their daily power consumption, in response to the real- time price of electricity. The IIT micro grid

. This program integrated information from a variety of contexts to solve complex problems while communicating effectively, a perfect fit to the related study environment. A similar program called PROSPER, (PROmoting School-community- university Partnerships to Enhance Resilience) has had exceptional results as well. A key reason for advocating for partnerships among schools, universities, and communities is that they can build upon previously developed public education infrastructures for the provision of training, technical assistance, and other resources used to enhance capacity for sustained implementation Page

IDE views income as abasic human right because lack of money restricts access to food and water.f To bridge the gapbetween designers and people living in poverty, IDE treats smallholder farmers as customers. Bydeveloping market-based solutions, IDE designers help people exit poverty. In IDE’s 2012Innovation Portfolio, the editors focus on IDE’s use of
