INTRODUCTION

Smart Grids are electric networks that employ innovative and intelligent monitoring, control, communication, and self-healing technologies to deliver better connections and operations for generators and distributors, flexible choices for consumers, and reliability and security of electricity supply. Smart Grids are complex networks in nature that face many new theoretical and practical challenges for the future developments. In this talk, we will first give a brief introduction of Smart Grids and their recent developments, and then examine the research issues in Smart Grids from a complex network viewpoint. Some of our recent research in this field will also be discussed.
