We first thought about, OK, how should the future smart grid look like?

我们首先想, 好吧, 未来智能电网会是什么样子?

Next, imagine a smart grid with distributed electrical generation.

接下来，想象一个具有分布式发电的智能电网。

In the coming decades, smart grids will expand to even larger scales.

在未来几十年中，智能电网将扩展到更大的规模。

Firstly, China is re-energizing the world's largest energy system with renewables and smart grid infrastructure.

首先，中国正在通过可再生能源和智能电网基础设施为世界上最大的能源系统重新注入活力。

Smart grids will be adaptable to the sporadic power output produced by solar and wind energy sources, which would make large-scale renewables more feasible.

智能电网将适应太阳能和风能产生的零星电力输出，这将使大规模可再生能源更加可行。

With a smart grid, if a broken transmission line causes a blackout, sensors instantly locate the damaged area while electricity is rerouted to the affected area.

• 使用智能电网时， 如果输电线路中断导致停电，传感器会立即定位受损区域， 同时将电力重新路由到受影响区域。
