Slovak Republic - Act on Power Industry No.251 of 31.7.2012§ 42 Intelligent Metering Systems (IMS) • The Ministry, in cooperation with the Authority, Operators of regional distribution systems and other participants in the market with power, shall elaborate the Analysis of economic benefits resulting from the implementation of various versions of Intelligent Metering Systems (IMS) and costs for their procurement, installation and operation for appropriate categories of end consumers • On the basis of such Analysis, it determines the categories of end power consumers and imposes the duty to implement IMS in at least 80% of consumption points pertaining to each individual category • Participants in the market with power shall collaborate with PDS in exerting cooperation at the installation and operation of IMS by the way and under the conditions as stipulated in Sect. § 95.
It has been decided… • The Ministry (MHSR) decided in September 2012, in cooperation with ÚRSO and on the basis of analyses, that it will be economically effective under current conditions to implement IMS at all consumption points with the annual power consumption higher than 4,000 kWh. • The overall annual power consumption at those consumption points represents approx. 53% of the total consumedpower at the LV level and those consumption points represent approx. 23% of the total consumption points at the LV level. • It results from the pilot projects and related data concerning real costs and benefits, with consideration of possible development of respective technologies, that the actual scenario may have to be updated after two years. • Further progress and functionalities of the system shall be specified by MHSR in cooperation with an expert group in compliance with Sect. § 95 of the Act No.251/2012 (not later than on 30. 6. 2013).
How to do that? Act on Power Industry No.251 of 31.7.2012Sect. § 95 Authorising provisions h) The Ministry shall issue a generally binding legal regulation which will include the following items concerning the implementation and operation of IMS according to Sect. § 42: • 1. Criteria and conditions for the implementation of IMS for the individual categories of end power consumers, • 2. Deadlines for the implementation of IMS for the individual categories of end power consumers at which it seems to be reasonable to implement IMS within the next 10 years, • 3. Requirements for the cooperation of individual participants in the market with power in the installation and operation of IMS, • 4. Required technical parameters of IMS, • 5. Requirements for data transfers and cooperation of individual systems, • 6. Method of access to data collected by IMS from the side of individual participants in the market with power,

Our principal goals – IMS+ Analysis of output and qualitative parameters of LV grid, analysis of losses, revealing of reserves Prevention of fault conditions and outages Improved control and shifting of peak power consumption Equalisation of balance between power consumption and generation in the area of interest Resolution of issues connected with Renewable Energy Sources (RES): instability, surplus or shortage of power which is often generated in an unsuitable period of time, depending on hardly predictable external influences Reduction and optimisation of power transmission Improvement of qualitative power supply parameters Reduction of losses and improved efficiency
How to be Smart? • No grid can be Smart or no grid can even exist without Smart Metering. • It would be ineffective or almost useless, if we implement Smart Metering without actually building up Smart Grid. 3. All that would be useless,if the metering is incorrect and incomplete
Daily profiles of power generation and consumptionfrom fotovoltaic sources There are efforts to equalise the balance of power generation [green curve] and consumption [blue/red curve] or to "shave" peaks of consumption. Peaks of power generation and consumption occur at different times

Are we metering correctly? Current is “contaminated” and asymmetric Deformation due to a phase shift and higher harmonics Current is composed not only of the first harmonics but also of higher harmonics, there is a phase shift between current and voltage and a three-phase system is often asymmetric
over - undesirable Are we metering correctly? Apparent power and other sorts of power Obviously: S = U.I 1st term – active power P.The unit of P is watt.Customer pays for such power. 2nd term – reactive power Q. The unit of Q is var. Customer sometimes pays for such powerin the form of surcharge or penalty. 3rd term – distortional power D. The unit of D is VA. Nobody pays for such power, nor is penalised for it.
Let us not neglect the future! Power factor P/S (PF), losses Power = total power S Wattless (reactive) power Q Asymmetry N Active power P Distortional power D
PF is not the same as cosφ (even if it sometimes is...) It is prescribed in the pricelists of power distribution for monthly invoiced customers to monitor also "the power factor or cos φ" which must be within the limits 0.95 to 1. When this condition has not been satisfied, the customer is penalised by a tariff surcharge, a percentage surcharge to the tariff price for the distribution. We should realise that cos φ in this case represents just a phase shift of the first harmonics u and i, which is defined by means of tg φ as a ratio Q/P and does not represent a real "power factor" which is understood to be the ratio of watt and wattless power in a periodic mode:.PF = λ = P/S (i.e. not cos φ) The notion "phase shift" φ, or "power factor" cos φcan be used only for the harmonics u and i. For non-harmonic cycles, we should use PF, i.e. P/S
Losses – loss increase coefficient kz, P/S Undesirable increase of losses is characterised by loss increase coefficient kz –it indicateshow many times are respective losses higher than minimally possible losses for a given power output. or, after re-arrangement: If kz>1, then (undesirably) we consume power also for phase shifting, generation of higher harmonics and asymmetry. 3 principal factors which need to be analysed and their influence minimised: • Magnitude of wattless power Q, measurement of Q1 and cos φ • Magnitude of distortional power D, measurement of S and higher harmonics of U, I • Magnitude of asymmetry, measurement of U and I in a three-phase system
Cos φ and P/S (Monthly monitoring 10/2012, weekend 6 – 7 / 10) cos(φ) cos(φ) – measured according to power industry usage, it includes the influence of Q P/Sa ("cos" Sa) – measured with the help of arithmetic apparent power, it includes the influence of Q, D P/Sr ("cos" Sr) – measured with the help of correct apparent power, it includes the influence of Q, D and, in a three-phase system, also asymmetry N All measurements are cumulative, i.e. on the basis of energy, not output

Losses in lines "Good" Imin and “Bad" Inad current “over-losses" in lines Total losses in lines Minimum possible losses in lines Losses caused by the passage of electric current through a conductor are inevitable. They can be optimal or higher than that. They are optimal, if they have a minimum possible value at a given transmitted power output – minimum losses occur when P=S.
How much are losses changing? The increase of P/S from 0.85 to 0.92 e.g. means that the real losses decrease by 20 % of the magnitude of minimum possible losses
Graphical expression of change How much will losses change? Let us try to improve P/S % originally 0.9 originally 0.9
