As the society increasingly emphasizes the need of clean and renewable energy systems, the electric power industry is undergoing profound changes to translbrm a passive, hierarchical grid into an active and open-access smart grid. Enabled by advances in sensing, comnaunication, and actuation, future smart grids offer much broader opportunities for cross-fertilization be- tween the traditional power engineering community and the conlmunication community. This special issue pres- ents a glimpse of what is possible under this historical transition
