2015. ( Forecasted budget is 28 MTL)
Whole HV and LV network has been modelled and analysised in digital
environment (Dig Silent) to determine 5 and 10 years network investment
requirements.
SCADA/DMS Project started in September,2012 and it’s still going on.
Project Budget is 13 MTL for 2012 and 2013 ( 5 MTL has been spent in 2012)
Project is being executed by General Electric Digital Energy.

6. EXPECTATIONS
EMRA
Awarness of successful technological investments require enough time to realize
them ( Process analysises, system conceptive,etc.)
Give reasonable time to DisCOs to complete the whole integrated distribution
management systems instead of applying penalties.
Revise the investment budgets as DisCOs can realize their technological systems
accordingly international quality standards.
Resolve the uncertainity on the technological investments which have been
realized prior to unbundling.
USTDA
Establish a strong technology connection between DisCOs in US and Turkey
Lead DisCOs in Turkey to make a proper IT requirement analysis and determine
priorities
Lead DisCOs to transfer the proper technology at the right time.
TECHNİCAL SUPPORTERS
Pay attention the proper technological requirements of DisCOs more than
commercial profits
Make workshops with DisCOs and direct them to advise the best technological
solutions.
