ITU-T Focus Group on Smart Grid Creation of the FG: Established in February 2010 Activities: • Had 8 meetings so far • Developing 5 deliverables: • Overview • Use cases • Requirements • Architecture • Terminology Details are at: http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/focusgroups/smart/Pages/Default.aspx
A conceptual model Source: National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
Key areas for standardization Source:ITU
Interfaces to be standardized 5 domains+5 reference points • RP 1—Interface between grid Domain and the Service Providers domains • RP 2—For metering information exchange • RP 3—Interface between operators/service providers and customers • RP 4--services and applications to all actors • RP 5—optional, between Smart metering and Customer domain Source: ITU
Importance of Global Standards in Smart Grid • The “union” between the Communications and Power industries is still unconsummated, but it will happen as building a new ICT infrastructure is very costly • Telecom industry and service providers have a very important role in the smart grid • Cloud based hosted energy service providers will reach the home also via existing broadband access technologies • Broadband access has a role in demand side management • Another driver for convergence is that Smart Grid does not end at the meter but it enters the home. • Many aspects of the Smart Grid are directly related to the availability of a home networking and consumer participation is key in demand side management programs • This will also shape the future of the Consumer Electronics industry through new energy efficiency standards
Collaboration is essential • Avoid duplication of effort • More than 25 related organizations invited to the first meeting, e.g. • National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), • Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), • International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
Next Steps / Actions • Focus Group finalizes deliverables end of 2011. • Future direction will be decided at next TSAG (January 2012) • Mechanism/organization to progress standardization • Items for standardization • Collaboration with other organization
ITU-T Focus Groups • Quick development of specifications in chosen areas • Addressing industry needs • Participation is open • Recent FG success story: Focus Group ICT & Climate Change (July 2008-April 2009)

Smart Grid benefit: cut peak load • … through AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) – two way communication • Demand/response: cut energy use during times of peak demand • Dynamic pricing: encourages to reduce power consumption voluntarily during peak period
Smart Grid benefit: Integrating renewable energy • Output of renewable energy sources (wind, solar ...) varies • makes integration with conventional power grid difficult • Smart Grid: • Wide-Area Situational Awareness • Electric vehicles-to-grid (load and electric storage)
