Old Grid Smart Grid • You call when the power goes out. • Utility knows power is out and usually restores it automatically. • Utility pays whatever it takes to meet peak demand. • Utility suppresses demand at peak. Lowers cost. Reduces CAPEX. • Difficult to manage high Wind and Solar penetration • No problem with higher wind and solar penetration. • Cannot manage distributed generation safely. • Can manage distributed generation safely. • ~10% power loss in T&D • Power Loss reduced by 2+%… lowers emissions & customer bills.

Smart Grid Deployments Lessons Learned
22 Smart Grid Lessons Learned Technology: • Challenge: “Hype” versus “Reality” • Utility expectations were that basic SG solutions were “shovel–ready” • Reality - Component technology was not as mature as advertised when combined to create a Smart Grid Solution • In many cases components were field re-engineered or upgraded to meet objectives and expectations • Challenge: Integration / Interoperability • Integrating multiple supplier products to create a SG solution • Lesson Learned: adopt and insist on standards and open architecture methodology – drive for plug and play solutions • Test, Test, Test • Lesson Learned: Extensive lab testing for “SG Solutions” is mandatory prior to implementation – understand the capabilities • Re-do’s are expensive and time consuming!
23 Smart Grid Lessons Learned Implementation & Deployment: • Challenge: Coordinating multiple suppliers • Managing equipment, shipments & delivery – pieces and parts along with assembly required for implementation (e.g., radio, controller, AMI network, substation equipment with software) • Coordinating software functionality with multi-supplier hardware and AMI • Lesson Learned: Minimize niche suppliers – prefer alliance suppliers with strong engineering and solution teams • Challenge: Coordinating multiple internal departments • Managing Substation and Distribution Engineering, Protection and Control, Communications and Construction • Lesson Learned: Engage 1 Project Manager for each Smart Grid solution with multi-discipline authority • Prefer packaged solutions from fewer suppliers – minimize the finger-pointing
24 Smart Grid Lessons Learned Project Management: • Establish Program Management Office • Multiple Project Managers reporting to the Program Manager • Adhere to PM guidelines such as Communication, Status Reporting, Risk Management, etc. • Build an “A” team with project and technical members – there will be challenges to collectively solve • Establish Corporate Steering Committee • Key status meetings with Utility Executives and Alliance Suppliers • Escalation and Risk Mitigation in timely manner is critical • Build Strategic Alliances with Key Suppliers • Define, Engineer and Build the Smart Grid solutions collectively • Alliance Supplier provides “On-site” management and technical support
25 Smart Grid Lessons Learned Change Management: • Smart Grid solutions involve multiple stakeholders (actors) • Residential / Commercial customers are now a “Major Stakeholder” • For example: PCT’s, In-home devices, utility incentivized customer programs, 2-way communication with the Utility • Define and develop “Use-Cases” for each component of Smart Grid • Use-Cases provide – a scenario description, defines the benefits, actors, functional requirements, and business rules and assumptions • Lesson Learned: Use-cases form the basis for the benefits achieved, functional requirements, development, and training • Smart Grid actors require “Significant Training” on the operation and maintenance of the deployed system (i.e., Operations Center, Communications, Customer Call Center, Engineering, Field Crews, etc.)
