3. Smart Grids : an ICT view

4. Smart Grids: the need for ICT standards
Whatever the definition:
EC Smart Grids Task Force (
The European Commission defines a Smart Grid as an electricity network that can intelligently integrate the actions of all users connected to it, including generators, consumers and those that do both in order to efficiently deliver sustainable, economic and secure electricity supplies.
… Smart Grids are an opportunity for the ICT industry
Smart Grids are about power
but also: billing, e-Commerce, subscription management, OAM functions, data models, connectivity and routing, access technologies, data storage, virtualization, cyber-security, …
… and ICT Standardization will be a key enabler
Smart Grids are about building complex interoperable ICT systems
That can only be achieved with global standards (like those ETSI is building)
A smarter grid makes this transformation possible by bringing the philosophies,
concepts and technologies that enabled the Internet to the utility and the
electric grid”, US Dept. of Energy report on Exploring the imperative of revitalizing America’s electric infrastructure

Open and mature set of standards pertaining to smart metering for the US market.
DLMS (Device Language Message Specification)
The suite of standards developed and maintained by the DLMS User Association and has been co-opted by the IEC TC13 WG14 into the IEC series of standards. COSEM or Companion Specification for Energy Metering, includes a set of specifications that defines the Transport and Application Layers of the DLMS protocol.
ETSI M2M
Develops an horizontal architecture for M2M applications including Smart Metering.
IEEE P2030
A project developing a Draft Guide for Smart Grid Interoperability of Energy Technology and Information Technology Operation with the Electric Power System (EPS), and End-Use Applications and Loads.
IETF
Created a set of activities pertaining to sensor technologies at large: 6Lowpan, roll. The objective is to bring IP all the way to low CPU, battery operated sensor devices. The IETF work is moving up the layers to introduce an HTTP equivalent for sensor devices (CoAP protocol). Recently the IETF created the smart grid directorate which is believed to be working on a large BoF session on smart power and the role of IP for Smart Grid systems.

US – Economic Stimulus
American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan – 2009 $787 Billion stimulus
The bill provides $4.5 billion to modernize the nation's electricity grid with smart grid technology. The bill increases federal matching grants for the “Smart Grid” Investment Program from 20% to 50%. $10M for NIST to coordinate smart grid standards
Department of Energy (DOE) lead agency for U.S. Government - $3.4 billion of Stimulus-funded Smart Grid Investment Grants
The bill provides $2.5 billion for renewable energy and energy efficiency R&D, demonstration and deployment activities.
The bill provides a three-year extension of the Production Tax Credit (PTC) for electricity derived from wind facilities through December 31, 2012, as well as or geothermal, biomass, hydropower, landfill gas, waste-to-energy and marine facilities through December

ITU-T Focus Group
Rationale
According to the agreement of the October 2009 high level industry representatives meeting (WTSA Resolution 68), ITU-T study groups were invited to accelerate their work to support smart grid. The term “smart grid” is used for a concept of “intelligent” electricity networks aiming to save energy and to reduce CO2 emissions.
Further, in WTSA-08 Resolution 73 (Information and communication technologies and climate change) ITU-T called for the development of appropriate Recommendations within its mandate and competency in order to support the reduction of CO2 emissions and the impacts of climate change.
A smart grid concept will need harmonized support from telecommunication/ICT and electric power technologies and may result in the need for flexible network and service capabilities to accommodate demands.
Smart grid principles may also be applied to the telecommunication/ICT system itself, consisting of networks and service platforms, in the course of providing services with more efficient use of energy not only for the core network and access domains but also for home networks.
The Focus Group will interact with the various research activities in order to familiarize ITU-T and standardization communities with the emerging attributes of smart grid.
