  3. Today: Building Isolated Systems Utilities currently tend to develop intelligent systems in isolation For example, AMR and participation in energy markets Neither project is typically developed with the other in mind. Energy Markets AMR

  4. One-Off Integration Integration is typically done after the fact Cost is significant AMR Energy Markets

  5. Doing it the Next Time Now want to link in new systems Must first make the old system expandable Then must do another “one-off” integration AMR SCADA Energy Markets Outage Management

  6. And again… AMR SCADA Protection Energy Markets Outage Management Real-Time Contingency

  7. And then you remember… Security AMR SCADA Protection Energy Markets Outage Management Real-Time Contingency

  8. A Better Way: Top-Down Design Define standardized interfaces first Incorporate security, network management and other strategies right from the beginning Initial costs are a bit more than one-off integration, but not much more New applications can build directly to the new architecture Security Network Management Data Management Energy Markets AMR

  9. A Better Way: The Next Phase Can re-use the development from the first phase Expansion was expected Adaptation to legacy systems was planned in advance Overall costs much lower Outage Management Outage Management Security Network Management Data Management SCADA SCADA Energy Markets AMR

  10. A Better Way: And so on… Benefits INCREASE with time Opposite of the old way Outage Management Outage Management Security Network Management Data Management SCADA SCADA Protection Protection Energy Markets Real-Time Contingency AMR

  12. Smart Grid Data Explosion New devices in the home enabled by the smart meter 800 TB 600 TB PCTs Come On-line OMS Upgrade Annual Rate of Data Intake  RTU Upgrade 400 TB AMI Deployment Mobile Data Goes Live You are here. Distribution Management Rollout 200 TB GIS System Deployment Substation Automation System Time  Advanced Distribution Automation Workforce Management Project
