New Challenges for a Smart Grid
• Need to integrate:
– Large-scale stochastic (uncertain) renewable
generation
– Electric energy storage
– Distributed generation
– Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles
– Demand response (smart meters)
• Need to deploy and integrate:
– New Synchronized measurement technologies
– New sensors
– New System Integrity Protection Schemes (SIPS)
12. 12
Foundations Need Strengthening
• End-to-End Situational Awareness
• Alarm Management and Real-Time Root-
Cause Diagnosis
• Dynamic Models of all Generators and
Loads
• Faster System Restoration
• System Integrity Protection Schemes
– Faster reflex actions on wide-area
problems
– Measurement-based safety nets to
prevent cascading blackouts, e.g., load
shedding, islanding/separation, damping
13. 13
Why Accurate Models of Loads (Electricity
Consumption) and Generators Are Needed?
• Inadequacy of current model
data
– Inaccurate voltage recovery
simulation after disturbances
– Uncertainty about generator
reactive power capabilities
• Implications
– Uncertainty about the
stability margin of the power
grid
– Hidden risk of cascading
blackouts, or
– Under utilization of available
transmission capacity for
greater economic benefits

▪ Minimized Unserved Loads
▪ Avoid Equipment Danage

Effective System Restoration Can Reduce The
Societal Impact Of Widespread Blackouts
Extensive (magnitude & duration) blackouts
cost Billions of $ to the economy

New Solutions Are Needed
• Optimal end-to-end commitment and dispatch by ISO/RTO as
backstop for system reliability
• Virtual Service Aggregators serving as Energy Balancing Authorities
– Dispatch and control stochastic renewable generation
– Dispatch and control (and own?) large scale energy storage
plants
– Manage demand response proactively
– Manage smart electric vehicle charging
• “Virtual” Vertically Integrated Utilities
– Own/operate Generation/renewable/storage, some transmission,
& Virtual Service Aggregator
– Interstate ownership and operation (overcome NIMBY-ism)
• National/Continental Backbone Transmission Grid
– Holistic transmission planning
– Virtual RTO
– Transmission toll collection system

Conclusions
• Urgent Need to Make the Bulk Power System Really
Smart
• Failure to Make this a High Priority would Jeopardize the
Modernization of the Electric Power System
• Key Messages:
– Avoid hype
– Consider all parts together (Holistic approach)
– Remove deficiencies in foundations
– Implement new solutions

Notas do Editor
Today we have visibility of the grid but it is limited to 2-4 sec scan rates and simple measured values like MW, MVAR and KV.
Notice the shading on the photo to indicate limited visibility with the shaded fogging.
