Smart Grid Demonstrations• Integration of
Distributed Energy Resources (DER)
• Deploying the Virtual Power Plant
• Several regional demonstrations– Multiple Levels of
Integration– Multiple Types of
Distributed Energy Resources & Storage
• Leverages Information & Communication Technologies
Prague, 8-11 June 2009
Smart Grid Demonstration Approach
• Integration of DER with Utility Operations
• Ensure Interoperability of DER– Demonstrating use of common language to exchange information with
distributed resources from various manufacturers
– Multiple use of communication and metering infrastructure for control, measurement & verification of the dispatchable resource

Demonstrations address range of characteristics and applications
• Regional characteristics – Weather– Regulatory / Market– Availability of Renewable Generation & Storage
• Customer / Load characteristics – Residential, Commercial, Industrial
• Distribution system characteristics – Rural, suburban, urban overhead and underground systems
• Communication Infrastructure available– Public (internet, cellular) – Private (AMI, licensed)

Key ObjectivesDefine information models and communications interfaces
– All Levels of distributed resource integration (home, enterprise, market)
Develop application guidelines, integration requirements and standards for distributed resource integration.
Field Assessments to:– Understand required systems and technologies for
distributed resource integration
Verify Smart Grid business case assumptions – Describe costs and benefits associated DER Integration
