There Is An Unmet Market Need • Today’s AMI systems are closed • AMI systems are meter-centric, not smart-grid-centric
ESNA is Filling This Market Need • Making available a field-proven Open Smart Grid Protocol (OSGP) • Proven scalability and reliability in over 2 million smart grid devices worldwide (meters and more) • Promoting adoption of smart grid systems and standards built on the OSGP standard • Providing a certification process to assure products comply with OSGP specifications
The crisis at the edge of the grid U.S. utilities experience peak demand just 2% of the year…but incur 15% of their annual costs on these days Outages have increased by 124% in the U.S. over the past two decades Developing countries' share of global electricity demand is projected to jump from 27% in 2000 to 43% in 2030 There will be 1 million EV chargers in the US by 2015
So far the Smart Grid has focused on meteringSmart meters are about demand shifting…
The Power of Open Control at the Edge of the Grid • Benefits • Fewer outages • Faster restorations • Greater efficiency • Better security • Lower operating costs and CAPEX • Happier customers • A cleaner environment Applications • Easily integrate AMR, AMI devices • Monitor and control power quality at the edge • Manage and control deployment of electric vehicle chargers and solar panels • Add neighborhood Volt/VAR control • Easily add dynamic micro demand response capabilities
Opportunity: Energy Savings • Critical steps • Energy savings value chain • Feasible activities and payback • Implementation barriers
Feasible energy savings activity Source: Driving the adoption of metering, monitoring, & targeting in the UK (2004) Carbon Trust of the UK
Demand Response Requires use of sophisticated work flow engine for EMS dispatch Automated polling of ISO/utility price and scheduling systems Load forecasting and baseline calculations used in calculating risk position
Utility Implementations • Are utilities positioning themselves to take advantage of these opportunities? • What are the major hurdles and impediments?
