5 Energy Storage Integration Council (ESIC) Webinar to ESA Members Eva Gardow, Chair Ben Kaun, Strategic Manager April 17, 2014

6 Background 6

7 ESIC Mission Statement A forum in which electric utilities guide a discussion with energy storage vendors, government organizations, and other stakeholders to develop safe, reliable, and cost-effective energy storage options 7

8 ESIC Vision for 2015: Distribution-connected storage guide Safe, reliable, and cost-effective energy storage can be procured and operated by utility personnel Connected to utility distribution system (initial focus) Distributed Storage Distributed Storage 8

9 Urgent Need in California Procurement Target 9

10 Urgent Need in California Distribution storage This year!! 10

11 Urgent Need in California Distribution storage FOCUS ON Safe, reliable, and cost-effective products for all procurements Solutions and lessons-learned need to be foundations for growth 11

12 Numerous Technical Considerations for Utilities Functional requirements Distribution Electric System Services and Use Cases Comparing Performance Safety Communication / cybersecurity Decommissioning Product reliability Installation and commissioning Supply-side services Operational best practices Scheduled and unscheduled maintenance 12

13 Automotive Analogy 13

14 Applications Define use cases and functional requirements 14

15 Performance Define key metrics and how to test them Define the appropriate set of tests to give buyer confidence Honda Civic 0 to 60: 9.7 s Lamborghini Gallardo 0 to 60: 3.4 s Top Speed: 140 mph Top Speed: 205 mph Fuel Economy: 29 mpg Fuel Economy: 15 mpg Cost: $20,000 Cost: $200,000 15

16 System Development Define the technical requirements for integrated products Complete and consistent product specification Key interfaces for interoperability (communication/control) Product safety 16

17 (Grid) Integration Operational requirements and best practices Installation Operation Maintenance Risk Management End of life? 17

18 Structure: Four Current ESIC Working Groups Performance System Development Applications Grid Integration ESIC 18

19 Desired Working Group Outcomes Performance Common terminology Test protocols System Development Safety, communication, specification Applications Use case definition, functional requirements ESIC Safe, reliable, costeffective storage Grid Integration Installation, operation, maintenance, end-of-life 19

20 ESIC Goal Year End Deliverable Documentation to aid utility procurement personnel to specify and procure distribution-connected energy storage in high priority cases: Coordinated working group outputs contribute to combined technical reference guide California ( and Ontario, etc.) storage procurement begins in 2014 Need is real and urgent 20

21 ESIC Leadership ESIC Chair Eva Gardow, FirstEnergy Strategic Manager Ben Kaun, EPRI Project Manager Morgan Davis, EPRI Applications WG Chair Bruno Prestat, EdF Performance WG Chair Naum Pinsky, SCE System Dev WG Chair Ryan Franks, NEMA Grid Integration WG Chair Steve Eckroad, EPRI (acting) Additional chairs / leads and committees for subgroups provide valuable efforts (more leadership opportunities available) 21
