Issues and Barriers

• Drivers don’t encourage coordination between DG and smart grid technologies

• Smart applications and DG compatibility• DA is not necessary implemented where DG is

interconnected• Standards and application guides needed that foster

integration of DG as opposed to simply connection (in progress)

Canadian Association of Members of Public Utility Tribunals (CAMPUT)

• CAMPUT purposes: – to improve public utility regulation in Canada; and

improve education of commissioners and staff of public utility tribunals

• Provinces at various stages– Automated meter reading (AMR) and Automated

meter infrastructure (AMI) – Distribution automation – Link to improving integration of renewable energy

through legislation (eg. Green energy act, Ontario).• Increasing interest in CAN-USA regulators working

together– US FERC-NARUC established a collaborative on

Smart Grid

Survey of Regulators (NARUC and CAMPUT)

• Background: – Regulators are guided by legislation– Utilities are guided by regulations

• Survey conducted by Capgemini between Sept.-Nov. 2008

• Results show that regulators are at the very early stages of an education and valuation process.

• When under legislative and or regulatory mandated renewable targets – then smart grid investments had more appeal if direct links can be made (eg. portfolio standards)

• “Goalpost” keeps moving from AMR to AMI to Smart Grid

Ontario – Encouraging Smart Grid and Renewables

• Smart Grid Forum releases its finding – February 2009• Green Energy Act created – feed-in tariffs for renewables

– May 14, 2009• Ontario Energy Board (OEB) - draft guidelines on

planning for smart grid architecture - June 16, 2009• Important elements:

– Creation of new deferral accounts for capital investments incurred related to the development of a smart grid or the accommodation of new renewables.

– Introduction of a mechanism to provide advance funding for expenditures to accommodate new renewables or develop a smart grid.

– Initial guidance to distributors on planning to accommodate new renewables and a smart grid.

Summary

• Canada’s existing electricity infrastructure was designed prior to advances of the information age.

• The “smart grid” includes improvement in metering, monitoring and control technologies

• Smart Grid is needed for future operation and management of electricity networks and for the integration of renewable and distributed energy.

• Coordinated research and demonstration projects required to support the transition towards a smarter grid

• Shared knowledge and progress reported

Future of Fault Location and Data Integration

• Beginning in the early 90’s, power quality monitors (PQ Nodes) were placed in secondary networks to monitor voltage.

• Monitors and software were developed by EPRI and co- funded by Con Edison to measure power quality.

• The high-definition data was also useful in analysis of system events, and PQNodes were placed in substations to capture additional data.

Future of Fault Location and Data Integration

• In 2005, engineers from Distribution Engineering, Power Quality and R&D envisioned a further use of the stream of high- definition data

• Working with Electrotek engineers, they developed computer algorithms and graphical interfaces to locate faults on network feeders

• This is the Reactance-To-Fault (RTF) system

• First applied in Manhattan, where it reduced fault locating time during the first summer (2006) by more than one hour, it is now used by all operating regions in Con Edison.

• Relay digital channels (targets, and pick-up) are named differently in SEL, GE F60, this may create confusion.

• Relay digital channels (targets, pick-up) will display the type of relay that operated/picked-up but not the faulted phase.

Bassler Relay - How to Identify Faulted Phase?

• Relay Target Phases are available in a log file (txt) generated by the Bassler Relay.

• The log (txt) file should be integrated in PQView to automatically identify the faulted phase, and send a notification (Future Development).

Working Progress and Future Enhancements

• Enhance Web PQView to allow intranet viewing of Digital Channels.

• Define and understand the functions of all the Relay Targets available especially for XFRs, and Bus Sections. Also standardize the Relay Naming convention between the Bassler, SEL, and GE F60.

• Integrate relay data (Analog, Digital Channels) into Visual Distribution, and other applications (FMS).

• Extend RTF application to the overhead distribution system

• Integrate SCADA from unit substations

• Integrate data from AMI’s

Wide range of applications that can take advantage of integrated data• Fault analysis - fault location, fault cause identification, trends of

fault conditions indicating problems.• Incipient faults associated with arresters, cracked insulators,

cable splices, etc.• Evaluation of breaker and relay performance – timing, pole

spans, coordination, evaluation of fault duties, maintenance requirements.

• Capacitor application evaluations – identification of switching problems, can failure identification, harmonic resonance problems, restrikes, performance of synchronous closing control.

• Transformer assessments – loading evaluations, harmonic duty, fault duty, identification of possible problems from harmonics and unbalances.

• Tap changer and voltage regulator assessments – identification of problems from disturbance waveforms (see Figure 3), unbalanced conditions, voltage regulation assessments.

• Distributed generation applications – evaluation of performance with respect to interconnection requirements (e.g. wind farms).

System Event Concepts

• Requirements for coordinating system events– Information sources (coordinated data collection)– Time synchronization requirements– Data management requirements (common information model,

terminology)• Other integration requirements for analysis of system events

– Models (e.g. for fault location)– Model synchronization– SCADA/EMS/DMS – system operations, conditions– Asset databases– Customer Information Systems, Outage Management System– Other information systems (lightning, weather, traffic, etc.)

The 26‐month study looks at 20 events with 9 events creating 

voltage sags below 70% of nominal (VL‐GND).

More 

importantly, there were 9 events where the VLL went below 

70% of nominal at the 161‐kV bus.

These events (maybe all) 

likely caused ASDs

(AC and/or DC) to shut down at industrial 

locations.  Customers likely called to complain.

In Summary…What is Key about this Project?

• Taking advantage of sensors throughout the system• Many applications can use advanced monitoring

information (PQ, waveforms)• Integration is required for the functionality of these

applications• System event concept requires synchronization of data

and common terminology• Effective utilization of Industry Standards

– IEC 61850 in substations– Common Information Model for Enterprise Integration

• Web-Based Services to make applications available to wide range of users with simple interfaces
