At the core, being “Smart” is understanding how to plan, integrate and operate technologies holistically
Added infrastructure intelligence enables increased reliability, efficiency and security while enhancing the end user experience
and creating a sustainable future
Financial, social and political pressures drive
infrastructure owners to improve end user service in
more cost- and resource-efficient ways

Smart Information - Defined
• Key Elements• Aggregation or ability to see
multiple assets as a collection, allowing large number of distributed assets to be grouped for control, planning, and other needs.
• Apply knowledge of present/past in concert with view of the near-term future (with consideration of price signals, market, weather, or other factors that shape demand) to FORECAST requirements.
Tools to organize data to support multiple business decisions/ objectives

Smart Information - Benefits• Identification of impending failures awareness of magnitude of
losses and inefficiencies within a physical system (water, energy, or otherwise), or performance bottlenecks)
• Allows needs to be compared to overall capabilities – this is key for demand response techniques.

Smart Utility - Defined• Point of coordination and planning
address how both existing and new assets will play together.
• Key Elements• New-build design, integration of
new/existing assets, extended opportunity for knowledge management.
• Develop understanding and implications or action required at both the aggregate as well as at the asset level
• Knowledge of and ability to model complex assets
• Leverage of high-level statistical math or AI tools in concert with tools/capabilities to assess/model what individuals asset can/will do.

Smart Utility - Benefits• Application of knowledge to how the actual pooled assets perform, implicit
constraints/options• Understanding of how off-line assets (like energy storage) can be best
combined to meet overall requirements.• A move towards optimization as forecasting improves to address longer
period of time with good predictability• Improved ability to efficiently plan/commit various resources into the pool

Smart Infrastructure - Defined• Consumption shaping through data
aggregation, demand/supply matching, demand response, (within various plants, systems, homes, etc.) is “controlled” (like air conditioning, recharging of vehicles, etc.) across all utilities
• Key Elements• Systems engineering principles
applied to help design integrated use/multi-utility systems required for smart cities.
• Market based principles driving economic behaviours / actions

Smart Infrastructure - Benefits• Better multi-utility coordination of the industrial customer with the regional
utility (water, electricity, steam, waste product reuse, etc.). • OSI has noted that their analysis shows that managing interactions of top 30%
of industry will allow for 80% of load management to addressed
