Humanity’s greatest challenge in the 21st century


Smart energy is part of the solution


SMART ENERGY

M2M technology makes energy smarter


SMART HOME

SMART GRID

M2M networks

Smart Grid


Smart grid is an electrical grid that uses information and communications technology to gather and act on information, such as information about the behaviors of suppliers and consumers, in an automated fashion to improve the efficiency, reliability, economics, and sustainability of the production and distribution of electricity.

DEFINITION

What makes a grid smart?


Renewables

Smart meters

Load optimisation

Reliability

Process automation

Benefits of smart grid for the utilities industry


COST SAVINGS

NEW BUSINESS

Customer relations and billing

Electric vehicles

Distributed generation

Smart energy services

Network operations

Peak-load reduction

What are the world’s leading energy groups doing?


Smart metes reduced OPEX by 40% (€ 1.1 bn)

Invests € 6 bn in South Korea smart grid

China deploys 200m+ ”smart-ready” meters

Rolls out smart meters to 30m+ customers

Over 50 % of US households will have smart meters in 2016


Mandatory rollouts of smart electricity meters in Europe

SPAIN – 28m (2018)

FRANCE – 34m (2017)

UK – 29m (2020)

NL – 8m (2019)

Lots of competing standards for smart meter communication


PLC TECHNOLOGIES RF TECHNOLOGIES

Smart Home


Not defined! Closely related to the traditional domain of home automation that may include centralized control of lighting, HVAC, appliances, and other systems, to provide improved convenience, comfort, energy efficiency and security.

DEFINITION

What is an energy smart home?


Optimises power consumption

Charges an electric vehicle

Generates is own electric power

Talks to smart appliances

User-controlled Any device

Utility-controlled Smart meter

Benefits of smart homes


HOME-OWNER

PUBLIC

Lower energy costs

Better conditions for renewables

Improved efficiency in the energy sector

More stable energy supply

Improved control

Less environmental impact


A challenging busniess case for home-owners…

Electricity bill for the majority of EU households

Potential savings - 10 % - 20 % - 30 %

Cost of upgrading to an energy smart home


…but incentives are growing stronger

Rising electricity prices

Energy efficiency regulations

Electric vehicles

Lots of options for M2M communication in the smart home!
