7 Next Phase of Smart Grid Development Title XIII of the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 established a national framework for Smart Grid adoption American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 authorized funds ($4.5B) for implementation of Smart Grid programs Regions, Utilities, and other electric power system stakeholders are accelerating plans to deploy smart grid programs 7

8 Types of Smart Grid Projects Smart Grid projects can be broadly classified into: Reliability and Security Projects DG and Renewables Integration Projects AMI, Demand response, and Customer Service Projects Smart Grids can be designed to serve: Utility Operations and Energy Consumers Energy Management for Customer Owned Systems Zero Energy Districts Infrastructure Security (Rapid Islanding, self-healing) 8

9 Who Needs Smart Grids? Utilities Campuses Smart Grid Individual Consumers Project Developers Appliances, Equipment, and System Vendors 9

10 What are Smart Grids for? Power System Reliability Infrastructure Security Smart Grid Renewable and Distributed Power Integration Carbon Management System Operations 10

11 How do Smart Grids Scale? Multiple Utilities Transmission System Operations Smart Grid Micro-grids or managed energy systems Market Operations Transportation/ Electric Vehicles 11

12 Strategic Value of Smart Grids Energy Security in the 21 st Century requires a new, environmentally responsible national energy system A new Smart Secure Grid architecture will enable: Increased use of renewables (clean energy options), Demand-side management (greater efficiency), And enhanced Infrastructure Security To date, most Smart Grid projects have been Utility-centric and heavily focused on AMI and Demand Management Our region is well positioned to lead this charge and develop a comprehensive model for the nation 12

15 Call to Action Develop a coupled set of Smart Grid Projects to demonstrate: Utility and Consumer Benefits Zero Energy Districts Large-scale renewables integration Defense applications Bottom-up Infrastructure and Cyber Security Demonstrate how Smart Grids contribute towards Energy Independence, Infrastructure Security, and Carbon Mitigation Demonstrate scalability and replicability for the project to serve as a model for the nation 15

16 Next Steps Identify complementary projects and teams Leverage existing projects Identify synergies and corresponding design criteria Build project collaboration model Gain local, State, and Federal support for the project Build detailed project plans and funding strategy Become the first region in the Country to demonstrate a fully integrated, multi-utility, multi-objective smart grid in action! 16
