by EDF R&D including in the same infrastructure :

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)Supervision network devicesAdvanced mobility infrastructure for on the field crew

Networkoperations Mobility

Goal of this mock-up : to assess devices and technologies addressing some smart grids business requirements

Business issue : Smart Metering

Load profiles are automatically collected Several LAN have been tested :

Power Line Communication (PLC) :“Linky” PLC meters : PLC G1 (2.4 kbps) and (very soon) PLC G3 (30 kbps)

Low power Radio ISM 869 MHzEthernet

Several WAN have been tested :

14 ETSI Smart Grid Workshop 5-6 april 2011 – Mobility issues

Conclusion and next steps

Menofis has yet produced results :Metering, network operations and mobility integration through a common architectureIntegration of heterogeneous materials and technologiesFull IP infrastructure that permits interoperabilityMobility :

Handover with different media, especially DMR very helpful during crisis situationsLocal access to substation

15 ETSI Smart Grid Workshop 5-6 april 2011 - Conclusion

Local access to substation Interaction with local and remote DC and RTUAccess to central IS through wimax backbone

Menofis platform will be enhanced this year :More technologies : PLC G3, PLC “Prime”, mesh Wifi, extended realityHAN issuesSecurity

Test platform for European Projects : “Open Meter” and “Open Node”

Thank you for your attention
