Abstract
Smart Grid (SG) is a modern electrical grid with the combination of traditional grid and Information, Communication and Technology. SG includes various energy measures including smart meters and energy-efficient resources. With the increase in the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices data storage and processing complexity of SG increases. To overcome these challenges cloud computing is used with SG to enhance the energy management services and provides low latency. To ensure privacy and security in cloud computing fog computing concept is introduced which increase the performance of cloud computing. The main features of fog are; location awareness, low latency and mobility. The fog computing decreases the load on the Cloud and provides same facilities as Cloud. In the proposed system, for load balancing we have used three different load balancing algorithms: Round Robin (RR), Throttled and Odds algorithm. To compare and examine the performance of the algorithms Cloud Analyst simulator is used.
