  1. Grid Modernization Performance Excellence in Electricity Renewal Leveraging a Microgrid Approach Presented by John Kelly Executive Director, Perfect Power Institute October 15, 2013 Maryland Clean Energy Summit 2013 |http://www.perfectpowerinstitute.org/join-ppi

  2. Microgrid Approach to Smart Grid Buildings Microgrids Utility ISO

  3. Microgrids Attract Private Investment in Security and Grid Services Power Key Facilities and services when the grid is lost Provide services to protect the grid Lower statewide peak demand & prices Improve power efficiency and emissions • Customer Services • Renewable generation • Higher levels of power energy efficiency • Providers of islanding capability if grid is lost • Grid Services • ISO ancillary Services • Price response • Utility grid support (voltage, VAR’s)

  4. Microgrids Focus Utility Investment on Local Distribution Before SUB Fault isolated no one notices One fault takes out entire sub Fault isolated limited impact Smart Switch After-Self Healing SUB Smart Switch SUB Open switches near fault and close loop switch 4 |PPI PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

  6. Chicago Virtual Microgrid Default Electricity Mix Integrys Electricity Mix Energy savings of new mix is equal to HYDRO BIOMASS WIND WIND SIMPLE CYCLE NATURAL GAS Retiring a 160MW coal plant COAL COMBINED CYCLE NATURAL GAS NUCLEAR or an 82% reduction in electricity use ELECTRICITY SUPPLY ENERGY EFFICIENCY CRITERIA

  7. capacity 240 GW ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND ENVIRONMENT METHODOLOGY Leveraging Electricity Procurement 100’s of GW of coal generation remain available but idle capacity 300 GW Leveraging renewables and idle high efficiency natural gas to improve performance capacity 230 GW IDLE IDLE IDLE • capacity • 170 GW 35% IDLE 65% IDLE capacity 100 GW 94% 94% Renewable Simple gas Nuclear High eff. gas capacity 80 GW Contracts determine mix of sources 65% COAL 35% 32% 32% 87% 2012 usage 13% GRID |PPI PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

  8. Microgrids shift the focus to measurable improvements and capabilities. Capabilities Performance Outcomes • Islanding • Renewable generation • Demand reduction • District energy • Load shifting • Auto-restoration 50% Outages 50% Capital waste 50% Energy waste 25% peak demand 50% Emissions
