Malaysia’s smart grid system deployment is timely to cater to 21st-century electricity grid issues and leverage residential sector potentials. Nevertheless, developing house design aspects to tap into this potential has yet to be given a unique focus. Motivated by the belief of smart grid to enhance design aspects in this sector, this systematic review aims to identify significant smart grid components in the residential sector. A Smart Grid Optimised Building (SGOB) model is used for identifying initial critical building design-related components in the SG system. Selected works of literature were accessed from SCOPUS, Science Direct, and Mendeley databases between 2015 and 2020 using a keyword-search-filter process based on the PRISMA review protocol. 38 final articles were selected, and a thematic analysis approach was used to categorise further identified codes based on the latest National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Smart Grid Conceptual Model. Utilising ATLAS.ti, 43 initial codes were categorised into four clusters according to the NIST Smart Grid Model. An updated version of the proposed SGOB model included items discovered from clusters reported in the NIST-IEEE SG Model. Thus, this paper presents the latest information regarding attributes of the smart grid system vital to developing residential design optimised for the smart grid. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
