ZigBee Smart Energy Profile

Supported Features Include:– Basic metering [measurements, historical info, etc]– Demand Response (DR) and Load Control– Pricing [multiple units & currencies, price tiers, etc.]– Text messages– Device support for Programmable Communicating

Tstats (PCTs), Load Control Devices, Energy Management Systems, In Home Displays (IHDs), etc.

– Security to allow consumer only, utility only, or shared networks


ZSE Security and Authentication

DeviceCertificateAuthority

Key Distribution

Secure

Link

Security is critical requirement– Smart meter must have secure

communications for safe smart grid

– HAN devices & meters must have strong authentication to assure authorized devices and use

Utilizes a Certificate Authority for the device keys

Incorporates an Out-of-Band step for an added layer of security

Process has been independently audited and approved by Carnegie-Mellon


Energy Projects Using ZigBee


“Southern California Edison will be relying on ZigBee Smart Energy products like these to connect homes to our industry leading Edison SmartConnect program,” said Paul De Martini, vice president at Southern California Edison. “ZigBee Smart Energy products will provide our customers with choice and promote long term sustainability.”

SCE SmartConnect


Centerpoint Energy Vision


Demand Response program expected to save 200MWs

Uses VHF to ZigBee bridge compatible with their existing system with full AMI upgrade path using ZigBee

– Bridge relays VHF messages to ZigBee Programmable Communicating Thermostat (PCT)

– ZigBee In-Home Display Manages energy usage in near real time

Pepco Holdings Inc.


TXU Energy Broadband Project

ZigBee enabled thermostats and gateways– Active program launched in June 2008– Self installation by home owner

Facts and Figures

255 000 Meters (electrical) out of 260 000 installed

App. 8000 Concentrators

App. 7000…17 repeaters actually used

9 jumps identified, can do 18, have set limit to 10

Infrastructure built to handle 1,1 million meters

3000 GPRS meters

>99% within 24 hours, close to 100% 5 days

Remote disconnect in use

Planning to add district heating, gas and water metering in our infrastructure


-Next Steps

Immediate Focus:Power Quality and Failure alarms – Smart Grid foundation

Multimetering – Gas, District Heating, Water

Advanced Meter Management - implementation of processes

New Services (among others)– Individual metering

(heat, water)

– Security Alarm

– ZigBee locks

– Control of street lamps

The United States Congress suggested it in relation to Stimulus Funding access and US utilities are now requiring it as part of their future networks.

What will most likely be in it?– MAC – 15.4 2006 with MAC security– 6lowPAN packet format and fragmentation – ROLL routing– Plus other features essential to effective

sensor networks

Why a ZigBee IP stack?

28


Simplified installation for new smart energy applications in large apartment or commercial buildings with no other control networksFurther expansion of the Home Area Network market by enhancing the ease of use and commercial viability of Smart Energy Advent of PHEVs in 2010 requires energy management system to address technical and business problems related to charging/discharging, billing, and access management.

Common system architecture and application profile interface for home energy devices independent of networking technology
