1. The document discusses key drivers and challenges facing smart grid technologies globally including deregulation, distributed generation, aging infrastructure, growing energy demand and losses, and cybersecurity issues.
2. It provides an overview of the Millener smart grid project in France which implements PV, energy storage, and an energy management solution across two island grids to test aggregator services and business models.
3. Finally, it discusses an Indian smart grid vision and how distribution management systems can be used for volt/VAR optimization to reduce peak demand by 350+ MW through distribution system demand response without requiring changes in customer behavior.

Value: DMS For Volt/VAR Optimization
• Progress Energy
– Approx 1.5 M customers
– Load growth of ~5,000 MW by 2025
– Mandated ‘renewables’ portfolio
renewables
of 12.5% by 2021
– Last generation plant built in 1980s
• Goal: Reduce peak by 350+ MW
– Using distribution system demand response
(DSDR)
• The DSDR concept
– Managing utility-owned assets
– Some capital investment
– DMS for analysis/control
– No required change in
customer behavior
