Key Drivers Regulatory Mandate
In the US, The Federal Energy Act of 2007 has language that fosters the advancement of Smart Grid but leaves it to the states to define its requirements Three states have issued directives for the implementation of Smart Grid technology and many others are exploring options
Copyright 2011 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
11
Key Drivers Aging Grid and Reliability
Massive investment will be needed to upgrade the transmission and distribution grid over the next 10 years; 60% of the existing equipment will need to be replaced It is estimated that the cost of power outages and quality disturbances to the U.S. economy is over $100 billion Need for automation is also generated by the estimate that 50% of the North American technical workforce is expected to reach retirement age in 5 to 10 years
Copyright 2011 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
12
Key Drivers Future Generation Need/Network Management
Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHV) are likely to increase the stress on the distribution network Future development in distributed generation will also affect the design and operation of the distribution network
The grid will need to be able to handle intermittency and peak shaving technologies like battery banks
Copyright 2011 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
13
Key Drivers Customer Needs and Requirements
Under rising costs of energy, customers are likely to demand a more granular level of information to reduce their bills and contribute to the conservation of the environment The use of more flexible pricing mechanisms, such as Time of Usage and Critical Peak Pricing, will require implementation of automation
Copyright 2011 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
14
Key Drivers Impact on the Environment
Peak shaving and load shifting reduce reserve requirements which reduce total energy required Energy efficiency can reduce energy usage thus reducing carbon emissions Capital deferment and distributed generation reduces the need for additional future generation or power plants
Copyright 2011 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
15
Key Drivers Technology Evolution
Automated Meter Reading is quickly becoming obsolete, and vendor support costs for old systems are likely to increase exponentially In the face of new capital investment, new technology, such as Advanced Metering Infrastructure may be the cheaper solution

Smart Grid: A Definition
A Smart Grid is an intelligent network that uses sensing, embedded processing, digital communications, and software to manage network-derived information, thus making itself:
Observable
Measure the states of all grid elements
Controllable
Affect the state of any grid element
Automated
Adapt and selfheal
Integrated
Connected to utility processes and systems

Lexploitation du rseau radio : 3 activits lies
La supervision a objectif de dtecter et localiser les incidents qui peuvent provenir aussi bien de la chane communicante ou du systme dinformation. La supervision permet dune part de dterminer lopration corrective apporter (la maintenance planifie et ralise cette opration) et dautre part, danticiper les incidents en suivant lvolution des indicateurs cls (la maintenance met jour la gamme de maintenance). La maintenance a pour mission dtablir la politique de maintenance (gamme de maintenance, modes opratoires) de la solution. Elle planifie les oprations de maintenance et ralise les interventions. Une partie de la maintenance peut tre ralise distance sur la chane communicante depuis le SI AMR. Planification radio : La planification radio consiste dterminer la localisation idale des concentrateurs (20 000 au plus) sur lensemble du territoire, de sorte de couvrir de manire optimale lensemble des compteurs communicants.

Pourquoi une planification radio ?
La planification radio consiste dterminer la localisation idale des concentrateurs (20 000 au plus) sur lensemble du territoire, de sorte de couvrir de manire optimale lensemble des compteurs communicants :
La planification radio vise une couverture radio de lensemble des compteurs tous segments confondus (rsidentiels et industriels) La planification radio ne garantit pas la couverture radio des postes qui seraient potentiellement tlexploits
Des outils spcifiques (cf. IHM) permettent de dterminer de manire thorique la couverture des concentrateurs en fonction de lenvironnement
Permet de localiser les zones non couvertes par comparaison des mesures remontes par la Chane communicante (relation avec la supervision) et lors des changements de points hauts (perte dun hbergeur, extension du rseau, etc.) Enjeux :
Optimiser la couverture radio et donc maximiser la transmission des donnes de comptage Minimiser le nombre de concentrateurs dployer, et donc le nombre dquipements installer et de conventions dhbergement ngocier Vrifier lligibilit des bailleurs selon la couverture thorique attendue
