DANGER: Smart Grid Integration without Standards or Architecture
It is not sufficient just to integrate systems haphazardly
There must be an overarching plan, or blueprint
Otherwise, vital systems integration may be prevented because of:– High costs– Missing technology

CHALLENGES OF INTEGRATION:Building Isolated Systems
Utilities and vendors tend to develop intelligent systems in isolation
For example, AMR and participation in energy markets
Neither project is typically developed with the other in mind.
AMR
EnergyMarkets

CHALLENGES OF INTEGRATION:One-Off Integration
Integration is typically done after the fact
Cost is significant
AMR

CHALLENGES OF INTEGRATION:Doing it the Next Time
Now want to link in new systems
Must first make the old system expandable
Then must do another “one-off” integration

AMR
Doing it Right: Top-Down Architecture
Define standardized interfaces first Incorporate security, network
management and other strategies right from the beginning
Initial costs are a bit more than one-off integration, but not much more
New applications can build directly to the new architecture

Doing it Right: The Next Phase Can re-use the
development from the first phase
Expansion was expected Adaptation to legacy
systems was planned in advance
Overall costs much lower

The Value of Top Down Integration Permits existing infrastructure to be re-used Eliminates redundant effort and last minute retrofits Prevents forklift upgrades Vital system-wide capabilities, like security, comes standard Prepares the system for unforeseen change:
– New technology– New applications– New organizational change

Barriers to Planned System Integration Organizational
– Corporate culture– Existing policies– Departmental “Silos”– Lack of human resources
Knowledge– Missing applications– Missing algorithms– Lack of training
Systems– Lack of standards– Too many “standards” to choose from– Missing products and services– Not applying formal methodology
Business– Lack of policy to use standards– Not writing it into RFP’s

Conclusion Many of the standards we need are already there There are different needs in different environments
– Define new applications and procedures– Agree on common information models– Adopt, evolve existing technologies and protocols– Develop new technologies and protocols– Apply systems engineering discipline
Each of these tasks comes with a cost Standards provide the most benefit when
implemented frequently and pervasively Pay attention to the business case Specify the use of standards in RFP’s Synchronize with the NIST roadmap
