This is a real challenge for electric systems and a paradigm shift for existing distribution networks. With the help of \"advanced\" smart technologies, the Distribution System Operators will have a central role to integrate massively renewable generation, electric vehicle and demand response programs. Many projects are on-going to develop and assess advanced smart grids solutions, with already some lessons learnt. In the end, the Smart Grid is a mean for Distribution System Operators to ensure the quality and the security of power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeveral books have been written to provide a definition of Smart grids, explore the different technical evolution needed and explain \/ analyse what would be the benefits.
