9 Variety is the spice of life? 10

10 EPRI s Advanced Metering Research Program Collaborative research to maximize the value, minimize the risks, and expand the future potential of advanced metering systems. Research drivers: The changing landscape of available systems, technologies, and standards Diverse and evolving regulatory expectations New AMI system uses and value streams Network ownership and associated organizational and operational challenges Questions regarding solid state meter performance and reliability 11

11 Areas of Research in the AMI Program Open, Interoperable AMI systems Direct participation in standards groups on your behalf. Open reference Wi-Sun protocol. Interop events. Interoperability test tools. Optimized AMI System and Data Utilization Established Best Practices for AMI O&M Collecting, documenting, and organizing AMI use cases. Tracking AMI system deployments and uses. Establishment of the online AMI resource center. Coordinating with AMI operations groups. Best practices developed for: AMI prognostics and health management, revenue protection, many other needs identified. Meters and Devices Solid state meter laboratory evaluations. Over-voltage, DC saturation, hot socket detection/response, impact of solar inverters.

12 What is the Wi-SUN Alliance? The WiSUN alliance is attempting to do for IEEE g what The WiFi Alliance has done for IEEE

13 Why does this matter? Standardized communications leads to Interoperability among devices Simplified inventory and training Avoidance of vendor lock in Reduced costs for utilities and the public Improved operations due to consistency and simplicity Improved security and privacy by consistent security model Simplified procurement due to standardization 14

14 Wi-SUN Communications What is it? Radio frequency (RF) communications for meters and more Frequency hopping, spread spectrum mesh in ISM band Based on existing recent standards: IEEE g IETF roll IETF 6lowpan

15 Wi-SUN Communications Test and Diagnostic Tool Standards & Interoperability How will you determine whether or not vendor products are actually adhering to the standard? Wi-Sun Test Tool Device Under Evaluation EPRI Wi-Sun Interface Hardware Ethernet User Interface EPRI is working both: open source Wi-SUN stack implementation open source Wi-SUN diagnostic tool

16 EPRI Wi-SUN Diagnostic Tool Custom RF Test tool Based on inexpensive parts Uses EPRI Wi-SUN stack All open source software 17

17 Web based interface 18

18 Next steps Working with Wi-SUN Alliance on Refining standardized test specification Clarifying and fixing the standard where needed Assuring that security remains strong Other tools Wireshark-based sniffer for Wi-SUN RF packets Computer based simulation for networks 19

19 Closing Comments, Questions, Recommendations? 20

20 Together Shaping the Future of Electricity 21
