| Summary: | The foreseen capabilities of 5G, such as reliable and robust handling of data management can be commonly utilized by different sectors. The Electricity sector has remained for many years a stable industry using the same operational and maintenance regimes and dependable infrastructure. The need to integrate communication network domains in the Smart Grids context with 5G is considered as the next generation regarding power grids, and it is bidirectional as far as electricity and information is concerned, aiming to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery network (as in [1]). In this paper, a Communication-as-a-Service scenario is presented as a proposal of a telecom operator in order to “address” scalability, security and interoperability that a Smart grid network requires, by using communication solutions provided by 5G.
