BIDELEK SAREAK PROJECT: SMARTER GRIDS FOR BILBAO Amsterdam, 5th November, 2014 0
TABLE OF CONTENTS Bidelek Sareak Project: an actual Smart grids project Contribution of the value chain: Smart Grids Basque Country Bidelek: A new Smart grids level Conclusions from the project 11
Bidelek Sareak : actual Smart grids project Bidelek Sareak is a joint initiative of the Basque Government (through EVE) and Iberdrola Distribución Eléctrica. Its aim is to comprehensively renovate the electricity grid in the metropolitan area of Bilbao It has required an investment of 60M in smart grids systems with the following scope: More than 250,000 digital meters Introduction of different automation levels in 1,200 secondary substations and 3 HV substations Integration of distributed generation plants and electric-vehicle charging stations It has had a major business-inducing effect among equipment and systems suppliers in the Energy Cluster, offering them a opportunity to develop and test their smart-grid product range, technologies and services portfolio in a real-life application Showroom Bidelek Sareak Located in Tecnalia, it showcases technological equipment and innovation utilised in the project dimension scope innovation collaboration Equipment on display in the showroom Auditorium of the Bidelek Sareak showroom at Tecnalia's facilities in Zamudio 2
Bidelek Sareak: Contribution of the value chain 33
Bidelek Sareak creates advantages and benefits at all levels for consumers 3.8m annual saving in the Basque energy bill 16% reduction in duration of incidents" 40% reduction in number of incidents for society possible 25% cut in CO2 emissions thanks to smart grids 212 direct jobs created (nearly 900 taking into account indirect and spin-off jobs) 14m in tax revenue on increased business for the industrial fabric 18% increase in companies' R&D activities by 2018 (extra 2.8m) 26% increase in suppliers' turnover by 2018 (extra 24m) Improvement in supply quality with 60% reduction in Average Interruption Time for power companies 10% reduction in grid losses" 16% increase in profits through improvements in efficiency and incentives 20% reduction in cost of field operations 44
Smart Grid: Iberdrola model Customer Retailer Distribution Utility (Regulated) Smart Metering Remote reading of energy and power Remote reading of power quality Programming remote tariffs Remote connection and disconnection Smart Grid Monitoring of medium and low voltage grid Detecting network faults (without trial and error) Automation and real-time control of the medium voltage Improved customer service Alarm facilities LV network MV Network HV Network Meters Distributed Generation (Photovoltaic) Secondary Substations Distributed Generation Wind and Photovoltaic Primary Substations 55
Bidelek a new smart grid level Development of libraries for communication with field equipment Development of new functionalities and standardization of MV supervision and automation equipment. o Fault pass-through detection, accuracy and real time measurements (current, voltage, active and reactive power) o Open standards (TCP/IP, IEC-104, HTML, SOAP, XML, IEC-61850) o Remote management and configuration. 66
Bidelek a new smart grid level Systems improvement for integration of MV and LV supervision information: o Integration in metering management system o Integration in network operation system o System for access and remote configuration of the facilities. PLC communications optimization. New equipment for secondary substations with low concentration of customers (~100) o Concentrator, PRIME base node, 3G communications to system and LV supervision 77
Bidelek a new smart grid level Security improvement: o MV broke conductor detection (High impedance fault) Broken conductor No alarm o LV to ground leakage LV 88
Bidelek a new smart grid level Web page to the service of a responsible consumption and the energetic efficiency for the customers: o Access to historic consumption o Compare your consumptions with your neighborhood o Create your consumption scenarios 99
Bidelek a new smart grid level LV operation dispatch center Advanced LV supervision: o Meters LV line and phase Connectivity o Secondary substation line supervision embedded on the metering system: Information: Current, voltage, active and reactive power, quality of supply parameters. Alarms: Blown fused, phase lost, voltage and current limits Functionalities for the system: Balancing, fraud detection, LV fault detection, maintenance and investment optimization. 10
Bidelek ahead of the future Operation system integration o Automatic reconfiguration algorithm Past Nowadays 11
Conclusions from Bidelek project Private-Public partnership: Iberdrola and de Basque Government working together to provide smart grids to Bilbao and explore the possibilities for the grid of the future. Wide scope of systems integration in the project. Focus on open standards and specifications, and long term technologies. Involvement of suppliers of systems and equipment in the technological development. Innovative technologies in collecting monitoring and managing data for improving the quality of service. 12
