Guillaume & SmartLife Core Group – France – S1 – Paper 1095

1. SmartLife initiative in 2009-2010

2. Focus on some actions & results

3. Continuation in 2011-2012 : SmartLife2

SmartLife = European coordination Action

in Asset Management of T&D Networks


Context & Needs & Benefits

SmartLife

Management of current aging networks

Transition to Smart Grids with innovative technologies

Call for optimization of network AM based on :

Knowledge of aging mechanisms & estimation of remaining lifetime

Definition of equipment performance

Relevant AM processes

Need to consider equipment criticality through Risk Management approach

Interest of SmartLife gather & coordinate individual effortsat the European level to increase efficiency



Organization & Objectives

SmartLife


SmartLife = collaborative exchanges through a large networking of Utilities & Instituts

26 partners from 9 countries

12 DSOs, 6 TSOs, 5 R&D, 3 Universities

Consortium Committee, Core Group, User Groups

60 experts & asset managers

Exchanges = sharing of data / knowledge / practices

Identify best practices

Prepare / launch common actions


5 User Groups

Cable systems : some key results

SmartLife


Failure analysis

Good aging of both paper & polymeric links

Database to improve statistics on technologies & failures

Failure & aging mechanisms

Partial discharges for paper cables (thermal & mechanical constraints)

Water-treing for polymeric cables (water ingress & insulation imperfection)

Lab tests

Common procedures on samples removed from the field

Common database for sharing of test results


Cable systems : some key results

SmartLife


Health Index

Potential powerful tool to represent overall health of equipment

Need of development vs. data quality to help define AM policies

Diagnostics

Applied by utilities as potentially useful to determine link condition

Need of improvement to really support AM decisions (lifetime extension)

Technical specifications

International standards as a minimum quality level of equipment

Need of complementary tests to reach the required quality level


Power Transformers : some key results

SmartLife


Failure analysis

Few aging allowing a real opportunity of lifetime extension

Needs of maintenance & condition monitoring & on-line diagnostics

Questionnaire to collect experience on major failure modes

Diagnostics

Lists of main techniques used & major parameters to collect

Aging mechanisms

Long term aging mechanisms important for lifetime estimation

Post mortem analysis to estimate scrapped power transformer condition

Potential innovative technologies & techniques


Distribution network AM : some key results

SmartLife


Context & Practices

Generalization of Risk Management concept

Increasing focus on quality by regulators : from SAIDI to specific indicators

Needs

Network automation strategies to improve performance

Heath Index for critical equipment coherent with failure statistics

Aging models for maintenance / renewal decisions & tariff negotiation

Use: Confidential

• Both number and duration of interruptions• Premium and penalty based also on “customer willingness to pay”, much

higher for worse quality areas

New regulated cycle 2008÷ 2011 (1 of 2)

Distribution network AM : some key results

SmartLife


Tools

Strategic level tool to guide medium / long term CAPEX / OPEX trajectories

Operational level tool to optimize decisions on short term expenditures

Quality & Methodology

General trend for continual improvement program (PAS 55-1 & -2 widely used)

Data collection = key point of AM !

Recommandations on data to be collected

3 levels : Essential / Relevant an available / Interesting but rarely available

Opportunity to use mobility tools


SmartLife2 perimeter

SmartLife


SmartLife2 = to take benefit from implemented networking of experts and asset managers on Distribution issues

Simple cooperation = data exchange & information sharing

Added Value of SmartLife !
