Abstract

With the acceleration of the global urbanization process, urban energy consumption has risen sharply, and the transition to low-carbon cities has become an urgent need to mitigate global warming. However, this transformation is not a smooth road, especially since the profound change of energy structure faces many practical challenges. Traditional centralized distribution systems have not been designed with the need for access to renewable energy fully in mind at the beginning, so they are not able to achieve seamless integration of renewable energy. In view of this, this study relies on the rich energy data in the World Bank database, combined with typical smart grid cases, in-depth analysis of the unique advantages of smart grid in optimizing urban energy distribution patterns. Based on the review of previous research results, this study further refines the conceptual framework of smart grid, comprehensively examines its role in improving energy flexibility, deeply discusses the core role of smart grid in the process of urban energy integration, and puts forward targeted policy recommendations for promoting sustainable low-carbon urbanization.
