WORKSHOP

“DEFINING SMART GRIDS: CONDITIONS FOR SUCCESSFUL IMPLEMENTATION”

Barcelona, 9th February 2017

• What it stands for? • “Smart grid” concept generally are used to bring utility electricity delivery systems into the 21st century, using computer-based remote control and automation. (DOE-USA)

• "Smart Grid" is today used as a marketing term, rather than a technical definition. The general understanding is modernizing the electric grid. The Smart Grid comprises everything related to the electric system in between any point of generation and any point of consumption. Through the addition of Smart Grid technologies the grid becomes more flexible, interactive and is able to provide real time feedback. (International Electrotechnical Commission IEC)

• A “Smart Grid” is an evolved grid system that manages electricity demand in a sustainable, reliable and economic manner, built on advanced infrastructure and tuned to facilitate the integration of all involved. (ABB)

• Keywords from such definitions: • Remote control and automation.

• Comprises everything from generation to consumption. • The grid becomes

• more flexible, • interactive

• Advanced management of the grid

• sustainable, reliable and economic manner, • built on advanced infrastructure

• DER integration

• New actuators - Interconnection Switch The development of actuators allowing automatic and secure connection and disconnection of µgrids.

• New active devices - Ultracapacitors Short term storage with rapid exchange of active/reactive power for power smoothing: mitigation of flicker effects mitigation using ultracapacitors using only local measurements.

To exploit the treatment of EV batteries further than only energize the car. Allowing the EV to be treated as dynamic ENERGY STORAGE

• Cyber-Security More devices are communicating and even more will be in the future as expected due to the development of the Internet of Things. Cyber-threats may lead to critical outages or malfunction of the smartgrid.
