German Pilot Phase

- Typically driven by metering department- Initial focus of pilot was meter to cash

- Creates more questions than answers on business, processes, architecture and best practices:

- Where do I want to go from here- How do I enable value add services to be competitive - How do I differentiate myself in the changing market - Can I serve my customers better- How can I reach maximum flexibility- Has this be done somewhere- What will the market look like in 5 years - Can the Pilot Scale? - How much can/should I invest in growing the pilot- Is my IT landscape  ready for the future - How to support various metering data- What kind of data I need- End2End Architecture

Smart Meter Data Challenges•Managing the business processes and the data:– Meter Provisioning and Activation

– Data Collection

– Problem Detection and Resolution

– Data Synchronization

– Data Processing and Distribution

•By the numbers:Every day the AMI operations team must support – per million meters

– >2,000 meter exchanges per day during deployment

– >1,000 customer moves per day (25% yearly turnover)

– 10,000 missing reads per day (99% daily read success)

– 20 meter failures per day (0.5% annual failure rate)

– 10,000 data changes per day

– >97,000,000 meter reads per day (15-minute interval data)

– Nearly 4,000,000 missing data intervals per day

•Not to mention HANs, grid sensors, EVs, etc.

Summary

“I do not want another explanation what the Smart Grid is but

how to manage all the technology I now have in my network”

Carsten Fosvang, SEAS-NVE Denmark

Smart Metering 2.0:

• Manage the data and and operation efficiently

• Extract the value from the Data Tsunami

• Increase competitive edge
