Case Study In EU households
150 GW (12% of total) energy
consumption occur at peak time (1)
Energy produced at peak time uses
most expensive or most CO2 emitting
generators
with a reduction of 98 W per single
household at peak time, a total of 18 GW
can be obtained in Europe
30 large coal fired power plants would
not be needed any more

DDC basic concept
18
This meter is monitoring the power balance of the UK electricity grid. If the needle is too far to
the left, it means more generation is needed to meet demand.
The meter actually shows the grid's frequency, which is related to the speed of rotation of
generators all over the country. When there is too little power available, the whole grid "slows
down" and the needle moves to the left.
Grid Frequency
shows the
imbalance
between power
supply and
demand
Grid frequency
drops if there is
too much demand
because
generators start to
slow down slightly

Who is interested in DDC?
19
Utilities are interested in DDC for increasing grid
efficiency (revenues)
Governments are interested in DDC for decreasing
CO2 emissions (environment)
Both are going to provide1 funds for supporting:
• Manufactures of white goods that are available to embed DDC function in their
new generation of products (smart appliances)
• Customers that will buy such smart appliances
(1) Utilities and Governments are presently supporting DDC trials in USA and UK for testing the
technology. Whirlpool is involved in USA with dryers, Indesit is involved in UK with refrigerators.

What is Energy@Home (E@H) Project?
24
Energy@home is a collaborative project between
Electrolux, Enel, Indesit and Telecom Italia
The aim of the project is to develop a communication infrastructure that enables
provision of Value Added Services based upon information exchange related to energy
usage, energy consumption and energy tariffs in the Home Area Network (HAN).
The project envisions a protocol that shall be used to build an integrated platform to
allow cooperation between the main devices involved in residential energy management.
From a functional point of view, Energy@Home envisions a system that can provide users with
information on their household consumption directly on the display of the appliance itself, on the
smart phone or on their computer. Consumers will be able to use their appliances in a “smart” way
by enhancing the energy efficiency of the entire house system.

E@h - Contributo di Electrolux
ELECTROLUX ha progettato e realizzato,
a partire da fine anni ’80, soluzioni
integrate di elettrodomestici, dispositivi di
gestione e interfacce utenti degli
elettrodomestici. Esempi ne sono il sistema
Live-In e lo Screenfidge
Gli elettrodomestici possono utilizzare i principali standard di comunicazione in ambito
domestico concordati a livello CECED (Conseil Européen de la Construction
d'appareils Domestiques) nell’ambito dell’attività di interoperabilità. Per ciascuno di
questi standard di comunicazione esiste un opportuno dispositivo per la
comunicazione (NUI - Network Unit Interface) integrabile in un elettrodomestico
tradizionale per renderlo connettibile.
Electrolux intende valorizzare i risultati di questa iniziativa
sia in ambito di standardizzazione CECED, assieme and
Indesit Company, che nei progetti nei quali è impegnata
sia a livello italiano che europeo

• Smart Appliances: an evolution of the actual and standard white goods
• Smart Plugs: (able to provide remote metering and to be remotely controlled) could
be somehow included in the Smart Appliances category although they can provide no
direct control over the effect of remote control activities; Smart Appliances will not be
controlled by Smart Plugs
• Customer Interfaces: Typical Customer Interfaces are personal computers, Smart
Phones, PDAs, ad hoc displays, entertainment systems, in-house monitor and similar.
• Home Gateway: it is the gateway between the HAN (Home Area Network), the HN
(Home Network) and the WAN (e.g. internet). It is able to interface Smart Appliances
and other user’s devices (e.g. PC) through the communication protocol(s) used in the
HAN (e.g. ZigBee) and in the HN (e.g. IP/http) and to provide a broadband connection
to internet (usually via a standard ADSL connection).
• Smart Info: it is the element, provided by the DSO (Distribution System Operator),
which dispatches energy related information into the HAN. Published data are a sub-
set of those already available inside the Home Electricity Meter, hence the Smart Info
acts like a proxy of the meter. Additional data could be possibly generated by the
Smart Info itself. From E@H

CECED: Flexibility without complexity for users
35
• A flexible demand can significantly impact use
– A direct control of appliances from outside the house will hinder user
convenience and freedom of choice
– A fridge or an oven cannot be remotely powered off
– A washing machine stopped regardless of the working status of the appliance
means a waste of energy
• Smart Appliances can deliver flexibility without disadvantages
for users
– A Smart Appliance can react automatically to a signal from utilities
– Real time availability, cost, green level of electricity are examples of possible
signals coming from utilities

• Smart use of appliances is already possible today
– Some utilities offer a structured tariff, like day-night
– Most appliances have a delay timer
– Today the entire washing/drying/dishwashing process could be shifted from day
to night
• Smart Appliances would improve the ease of use and capture
new opportunities
– For example, users could enable a Smart Appliance to work at
• The default way, e.g. reacting automatically to grid overload
• The fastest way, e.g. doing the dish right now
• The most cost-effective way, e.g. shifting the wash at night

CECED: European policy makers to unlock Smart Grids
Smart appliances can:
– Reduce the peak time energy consumption up to 10%,
– Enable transferring a price to the consumer more linked to the market price thus
reducing economic loss both for the supplier and for the user,
– Reduce their consumption in response to an emergency signal to reduce the risk
the of black out,
– Help the consumer in adapting to time tariffs
In order to enable the potential we need to:
– Solve the chicken and egg problem and start promoting smart appliances
through a specific labelling, or incentives,
– Legislation must guarantee a fair transfer of the value created by smart
appliances, to consumers who offer an optimisation service.

This LSI incorporates the
power modulation interface
(PMI). The PMI enables serial
data communication using
the power supply cables of
home appliances. When
combined with a smart
adapter (SA), or an interface
between home appliances
equipped with the PMI
module and house power
wall outlets, the PMI
provides a home networking
system that connects
various home appliances by
using general AC power
lines used in a house.
