Abstract

As the next generation of power system, smart grid provides people with great convenience in efficiency and quality. It supports two-way communication and extremely improves the efficiency of utilization of energy resource. In order to dispatch accurately and support the dynamic price, a lot of smart meters are installed at users’ house to collect the real-time data or power plan. Besides, many entities in smart grid need to share some necessary data. However, all these collected data are related to user privacy. In this paper, we make a comprehensive survey of privacy-preserving in smart grid, analyze the current privacy problems and list the corresponding solutions from a holistic angle. At last, we discuss the future work and make the conclusion.
