Self-healing grids to self-healing factories

India is poised for a rapid climb when it comes to grids and factories incorporating self-healing concepts. The energy revolution is manifested in government programmes like access to reliable 24x7 power for all and the renewable energy target of 175GW by 2022. A lot of work is going on to include self-healing as part of the larger smart grid project, integration and balancing of renewable energy and the transmission and distribution (T&D) focus. The blackout and grid failure of 2012 underlined the need for self-healing grids which prevent damage from spreading across regions. From tractors to cement plants, biscuits to motorbikes, Indian industries are implementing sensor pilots or intelligent plant frameworks and driving the fourth industrial revolution.
