1 Beyond the substation Applying IEC to control street lights and microgrids

2 Who we are? Ing. Sander Jansen Data architect MSc. Jonas van den Bogaard IT architect (Data) architecture IEC CIM/ IEC Open source IoT Software architecture Open standards...

3 Where we are? Holding 7150 employees 1,6 EURO billion turnover Alliander Startup Development Open Smart Grid Platform, Smart Meter Head-End, Flexible Public Lighting System, Distribution automation system Alliander Startup Development Microgrid Platform DSO 90k km electricity network 42k km gas network Open source project 256,879 lines of code 30+ people involved Elektricity and gas Gas

4 Our Journey Some highlights 00 s: First substations: Some substations build with IEC : Lab demo s: IEC battery storage IEC base PQ IEC based microgrids 2016: New generation substation automation Substation automation with IEC by default 2016: Microgrids in production Microgrids in production 2012: Open Smart Grid Platform was born 2013: More focus on open standards Company wide attention to use open standards in smart gird projects 2016: Tender Public lightning Tender won by Vendor that supports devices with IEC interfaces. 2017: Test IEC for DA POC with IEC for DA

5 General architecture Applications & Telecom network Smart devices IEC Public Lighting switch devices Smart Meters IEC Substation RTU s IEC Microgrid controller & devices Vendors 5

6 Street lights and Microgrids

7 What are our IEC divers? INTEROPERABILITY SEMANTICS INCLUDED FUTURE PROOF EXPERIENCE IEC is inter-operable In comparison to other utility IEC is more and more Our people have experience with many devices from standards IEC has used in the utility sector with IEC different vendors context

8 What are our challenges? 01 No best practices for microgrids and street lights 02 IEC61850 MMS is not optimized for wireless communication 03 No security built in IEC No full organization support for IEC 61850

9 No best practices for microgrids and street lights Challenge 1 Generator PV systeem RTU 01 Battery House Missing objects in the IEC61850 data model

10 IEC MMS is not optimized for wireless communication Challenge 2 Higher communication costs More difficult to keep connection open 24/7 Lower throughput IP based IEC MMS over CDMA or GPRS

11 No security built in IEC Challenge 3 No Authentication Unique identifier per device Encrypted communication to and from devices Role based authorizations on functions per device IEC Where substation networks are often segregated from business networks, Microgrid and Street light networks are not. Private APN A fixed IP per device Every action to and from devices is logged Messages from unknown devices are denied Open Smart Grid Platform Infra Every connection is monitored

12 IEC future at Alliander Idea s for follow up plans More applications IEC webservices IEC in DA IEC CIM gateway More use of IEC Experiments with IEC IEC will be applied in Ways of sharing IEC webservices would be likely the distribution automation information with other IT space systems with the IEC CIM

14 Questions?

15 Q & A Questions and answers Where can I find more information about Alliander, Smart Society Services and ZOWN? Where can I find the code and documentation? What parts are open source? The Open Smart Grid Platform is fully open source. Most existing applications are not open source available. There is one open source demo application available. How can I reach out to the speakers?
