2 Low carbon economy requires significant changes of the energy (P&G) systems 2/14

3 2009 P&G synergies Source: Dr. Michael Sterner. Uni. Kassel, 3/14

4 Investments in Smart e-grids projects (2013, excl. metering) 459 smart grid projects billion 26% R&D and 74% Demo & Deployment 4/14

5 Smart metering provisions Directives 2009/72/EC and 2009/73/EC (Annex I.2) 5/14

6 Commission Recommendation 2012/148/EU of 9 March 2012 on preparations for the roll-out of smart metering systems I. Data protection and security considerations II. Methodology for the economic assessment of the long-term cost and benefits for the roll-out of smart metering systems III. Common minimum functional requirements for smart metering systems for electricity 6/14

7 Minimum functionalities for smart metering roll-out Market actor Functionality Market aspects Functionality Customer Metering operator A Provide readings directly to the customer and any third party designated by the consumer B Update the readings referred to in point (a) frequently enough to allow the information to be used to achieve energy savings. C Allow remote reading of meters by the operator D Provide two-way communication between the smart metering system and external networks E Allow readings to be taken frequently enough for the information to be used for network planning Commercial aspects of metering supply Security and data protection Distributed generation F Support advanced tariff systems G Allow remote on/off control of the supply and/or flow or power limitation H Provide secure data communications I Fraud prevention and detection J Provide import/export and reactive metering 7/14

8 Commission report of 10 October 2014 Benchmarking smart metering deployment in the EU-27 8/14

9 Cost Benefit Analysis in 2014: 250million - 45 billions 9/14

10 Positive evolution since the benchmarking study in All 17 MS plan to provide reading directly to consumers (USB, web, etc.) - 14 MS frequent update readings - 12 MS support advance tariff systems - Majority MS intents to roll-out interfaces H1 or H2, but not improve interoperability on the H interfaces 10/14

11 Commission Recommendation of 10 October 2014 on Data Protection Impact Assessment Template for Smart Grid and Smart Metering Systems The DPIA Template is an evaluation and decisionmaking tool which helps P&G entities to identify and anticipate risks to data protection, privacy and security. The DPIA provides guidance to help ensure protection of personal data and privacy in the deployment of smart grid applications and systems and smart metering roll-out. Two years test phase to collect and publish industrial trial test, but no gas utility is testing DPIA 11/14
