Today, I was lucky enough to participate in the CIGRE Canada panel on Network Resiliency. The presentations were thoughtful and led to interesting questions from the floor. Here is the presentation I delivered, let me know if you would to talk about how your organisation should grapple with Resiliency.
When selecting a new site or evaluating an existing site, there are dozens of risk factors that must be considered if optimal availability is to be obtained. Geographic, site-related, building, and economic risks need to be understood and mitigated to lessen the downtime effects on your business. In this paper guidelines are established for selecting a new site or assessing an existing one. Common risks that affect the availability of a business are defined and techniques for minimizing these risks are presented.

In an industrial facility, nothing operates without a reliable flow of electricity. Therefore, it is critical to properly maintain the switchgear and switchboards that distribute electricity through the power system. Switchboards are more commonly used in commercial and light industrial Low Voltage applications, while switchgear is usually specified in heavy industrial Medium Voltage applications, where the demands on the equipment require more robust construction.
In this session, participants will hear about real world scenarios for a variety of markets and what steps they have taken to address their security needs in an effective and efficient manner. Customer case studies will dig into real security challenges, mitigation plans, and the organizational benefits realized.
The Schneider Electric MetConsole® Low Level Wind Shear Alert System (LLWAS) – a module of the company’s MetConsole Aviation Weather Suite – provides the reliable and timely information and alerting to the gust fronts, downbursts or microbursts induced by thunderstorms. It helps minimize disruptions, caused by these wind shear conditions, to aircraft flying below 1,000 feet while approaching and departing airports.

Nowadays, risk-based asset management is
commonly adopted throughout electricity utilities as a business
model. Potential risks are registered, and after selection the
influence of the risk is assessed. This paper discusses the
possible shortcomings with regard to current risk assessment
methods. Based on an improved risk assessment approach, it is
shown that risk might be underestimated when the economic
loss of failures are not incorporated in the assessment.
Furthermore, with the advent of the intelligent networks of the
future (intelligent grid), the more user-centric requirements
should anticipate an improved risk assessment approach for
asset management.

Currently electricity losses are a significant issue for utilities totalling an estimated annual costs of over $200 billion and electricity theft is a worldwide problem but which varies depending on regions. These losses also have environmental impacts causing 1.200 M tonnes of CO2 emissions and wasting up to 8% of generation capacity annually.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

1. CIGRÉ Canada Panel Session - “What is Network Resiliency?”
Vancouver, BC - Wednesday, October 19th, 2016
Presented by Marc Brunet-Watson, P. Eng
Director – Power Networks - PSC North America
The Business Case for Resiliency
2. I won’t be talking technology
Understanding Resiliency
What is holding back investment?
Quantifying benefits of resiliency
3. Trying to define resiliency
Preparing for and adapting to changing conditions
– Resiliency time frames can vary from seconds to decades
– Planning horizons are becoming blurred
Withstanding and rapidly recovering from disruption
– Deliberate attack (PG&E transformers, Ukraine SCADA hack)
– Naturally occurring events (weather, earthquake)
– Regulation, technology, etc…
One measure of the resilience of any system is the speed
and return to equilibrium following a disturbance
– Time (before, initiation, duration)
– Severity
Resilience is a trajectory
4. Reliability versus Resiliency
They are not the same thing
– The difference increases with system complexity
Reliability is a measure of service
– Focuses on impact to grid
– Service standard is explicit and inflexible
Resiliency is related to risks & consequences
– Considers impacts beyond the grid
– Service standard is flexible and poorly defined
Direct recovery
Regulated Cap Ex
Destruction
& Mayhem
Some direct recovery
Regulated Op Ex
Cost recovery at risk
Societal impact and
regulated revenue
Managing risk is different than eliminating it
5. Will the two Rs converge?

RESILIENCE

Events impacting
RELIABILITY and
RESILIENCE
(future)
Aging infrastructure
Higher asset utilisation
Storm severity and frequency
Physical and cyber attacks
6. Resiliency is multi-faceted
Transmission networks have inherent resiliency due to N-1-1, N-2, etc
Network operators have been managing risk forever
Resiliency planning requires a systems based approach
From Sandia National Laboratories Report SAND2014-18019, “Conceptual Framework for Developing
Resilience Metrics for the Electricity, Oil, and Gas Sectors in the United States”, September 2015

Security culture
Health and safety
Basic service interruption
Macro-economic
Reputational
Fiscal impact
ASSESS
DESCRIBE
QUANTIFY
You get the consequences you don’t pay for!
9. Resiliency spending to date
Operational preparedness is a mature component of resiliency
– Increasing prevalence of real-time tools
– Focus is on Adapt and Recover
Hardening is occurring – often in response to major events
– Québec and Ontario post 1998 ice-storm
• Higher standards, new equipment big spend
– Superstorm Sandy 2012
• Undergrounding and path diversity from Southern US right up to Ontario
Technology based resiliency spending has been held back – why?
– Mostly pilot and demonstration projects as technology trials
– No large scale integration as part of Business As Usual
10. Regulated cost recovery is made for reliability
Asset owners expect a fair return on capital in exchange for economic regulation
Regulators have required service guarantees under an agreed framework (load
growth forecast, reliability criteria)
– High probability, low impact disturbances
Postage stamp tariff
– Uniform service for all whether it is wanted or not
What about High Impact, Low Probability Events?
– Who benefits and do they care?
Little incentive for resiliency based technology spend
11. Quantifying the benefits of resiliency
Total Benefits = Avoided grid costs + Avoided societal costs + Societal benefits
Apply the resiliency toolkit: Operations, Hardening, Technology
Solutions must be customised to the specific threats and vulnerabilities that have
been identified
Determine the level of resiliency you want and can afford – Value of lost load
– Duration and frequency of outages
– Breakdown by customer segment
– Quantify societal costs – human toll, property destruction, etc
Benefits have to be valued by someone!
12. Positive externalities of a more resilient system
Improved Emergency Response
– Avoided death and injury
– Responding where/when needed
Minimised productivity loss
– Less upset to supply chains
Increased energy efficiency
Reduced client-side expenditure
– Less need for backup gensets, back-up feeders, etc
Attractive to investment
– Companies value uninterrupted supply
Cost
Benefits
to grid
Societal benefits
(externalities)
13. Look for partners
Sensitive loads may need better quality of service than reliability
standards provide
Regional development agencies may wish to attract industry that
can be supplied by weak grids if strong micro grids and controllable
DER are deployed
University campuses and hospitals really don’t like to be interrupted
Resiliency is conferred
14. And once you’ve got it…
Resiliency driven investments in micro grid and DER can be made
available for reliability based needs
– Easing peak congestion
– Deferring transmission investment
– Increasing asset utilisation
Could it eventually be tariff neutral?
