  1. National Town Meeting – Demand Response and Smart Grid Hank Kenchington - Deputy Assistant Secretary Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability U.S. Department of Energy

  2. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) jump starts Smart Grid $4.5 Billion Smart Grid ARRA Funds DOE Funding for Smart Grid Activities $5M FY09 $2M FY08 NOTE: not to scale

  3. NIST is coordinating Smart Gird interoperability Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 Title XIII, Section 1305. Smart Grid Interoperability Framework In cooperation with the DoE, NEMA, IEEE, GWAC, and other stakeholders, NIST has “primary responsibility to coordinate development of a framework that includes protocols and model standards for information management to achieve interoperability of smart grid devices and systems…”

  4. Cybersecurity is a national priority “.. as the United States deploys new Smart Grid technology, the Federal government must ensure that security standards are developed and adopted to avoid creating unexpected opportunities for adversaries to penetrate these systems or conduct large-scale attacks.”

  5. Real-time, two-way communications Use of more open, interoperable architecture designs Increased reliance on automation and control Exponentially more access points Physical access to smart meters Interconnected nature of grid Smart Grid Requirements Could Introduce Risk • Potential for new cyber vulnerabilities • Build-in cyber security • from the GET GO!

  6. Cyber security must be embedded…..or $$$$ “Several challenges must be addressed in order to effectively secure control systems. These include: the limitations of current security technologies in securing control systems…...” GAO, October 1, 2003

  7. AMI Security Acceleration Project (ASAP) DOE partners with industry leaders Courtesy of EnerNex

  8. “ASAP – Smart Grid” – supports NIST DOE partners with industry leaders ASAP SG

  9. Reporting Progress - Transparency & Accountability • Everything we do will be transparent! • Visit recovery.gov (or energy.gov/recovery) to stay informed As of June 19, 2009
