Electricity has become a vital part of the modern life. Ever increasing electricity demand and inefficiency of the old electricity grid have led to the new vision which is called smart grid. Since, much work has been done to study the different aspects of the smart grid using computer and mathematical models. However little is done to combine those efforts to study the smart grid and ecodistrict in the same context. In this work we discuss the importance of the smart grid technologies in an ecodistrict development and the theoretical approaches for modeling smart grid and ecodistrict. Further more, we propose an agent-based model of ecodistricts with smart grid elements, by following a modeling approach called ASPECS. Though the simulations based on this kind of models can not be used as an exact predictive tools, it provides us with an exploratory tool to study how to integrate smart grid elements in an ecodistrict, and how different actors interact with each other.
