1 Business Use Cases based on DSO future Roles Aymeric Billet / Pierre Barrier (ERDF) Aachen, 19th March 2015

2 Approach used and links between deliverables To describe business processes in Business Use Cases Power Distribution facts & figures (RES penetration) Business Layer Existing roles and processes Existing regulatory frameworks and market architectures D1.2 Future Scenarios D1.1 The project described in D2.1 a selection of business processes associated with the DSO future roles defined in D1.3 D1.3 D2.1 DSO future roles DSO future roles Smart Grids services Functional challenges Interactions roles & external actors Analysis regulatory framework Business Use Cases D1.4 System Layer System Use Cases D2.2 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 2

3 New and evolving business processes of DSOs Described in Business Use Cases NETWORK PLANNING Optimise the development of the network using available levers (such as LV phase balance optimisation or network tariff structure) Elaborate the distribution network multiannual masterplan (including flexibility calls for tenders) Contract non-firm grid access with power limitation OPERATIONAL PLANNING Optimise work programmes (TSO, Producers, and DSO works) Optimise network operations until market gate closure based on a schedule (in operational planning) OPERATION & MAINTENANCE Decide asset renewal priorities and optimise maintenance programmes MARKET Certify, manage the impact of flexibilities activated in Balancing and Flexibility markets on the Distribution network, and provide data for the settlement process Operate a distribution constrains market (dayahead and intraday) Deliver other regulated services based on data provision DSO-TSO COOPERATION Manage TSO s requests at different timeframes (network planning, operational planning, real-time operations, & ex-post) Legend Business Use Cases described in full version Business Use Cases described in short version (without information exchanged, requirements, and terms used) 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 3

4 DSO s new and evolving business processes 1 Services to implement an Active Distribution System Management approach New and evolving DSO activities Associated new and evolving business processes Domains The improvement of network planning and operation processes, in order to optimise network investments Distribution System Optimiser Optimise the development of the network using available levers (LV phase balance optimisation and/or network tariff structure) Elaborate the distribution network multiannual masterplan (including flexibility calls for tenders) Optimise work programmes (TSO, Producers, and DSO works) Optimise network operations until market gate closure based on a schedule (in operational planning) NETWORK PLANNING OPERATIONAL PLANNING Decide asset renewal priorities and optimise maintenance programmes OPERATION & MAINTENANCE The need to contract and activate flexibilities at different timeframes to solve specific distribution network constraints Customer Relationship Manager Distribution Constraints Market Operator Contract non-firm grid access with power limitation Elaborate the distribution network multiannual masterplan (including flexibility calls for tenders) Operate a distribution constrains market (day-ahead and intraday) NETWORK PLANNING MARKET 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 4

5 DSO s new and evolving business processes 2 Service to contribute to system security New and evolving DSO activity Associated new and evolving business process Domain The reinforced cooperation between TSOs and DSOs to improve the system security Contributor to System Security Manage TSO s requests at different timeframes (network planning, operational planning, real-time operations, & expost) DSO-TSO COOPERATION Distribution System Optimiser 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 5

6 DSO s new and evolving business processes 3 Services to implement a Market Facilitator Approach New and evolving DSO activities Associated new and evolving business processes Domains The ability to facilitate and enable electricity markets in a neutral and transparent way Neutral Market Facilitator/Enabler Certify, manage the impact of flexibilities activated in Balancing and Flexibility markets on the Distribution network, and provide data for the settlement process Elaborate the distribution network multiannual masterplan (including flexibility calls for tenders) MARKET Distribution Constraints Market Operator Operate a distribution constrains market (day-ahead and intraday) The possibility to provide regulated services based on data management and provision, in order to facilitate national and local public policies and enable customer empowerment Customer Relationship Manager Other Third Parties Relationship Manager Deliver other regulated services via data provision MARKET/ CLIENTS 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 6

7 Example of Service described in Business Use Case Contract non-firm grid access with power limitation Short Description: When receiving a grid connection request, the DSO performs load flow calculations and proposes to the Grid User (DG or tertiary/industrial consumer) alternative grid connection technical and commercial proposals with power limitation, in exchange for reduced connection costs and delays. This flexibility can be activated by the DSO during a contractual number of hours per year to solve constraints on the distribution network. Functions and innovative tools required:» Long-term load and generation forecasts» Probabilistic load flow calculations Use Case Overview diagram Objective 1 Offer dynamic grid connection contracts with temporary active power limitation Objective 2 Manage the grid connection contract Data Manager DSO Grid Users/ Suppliers/BRPs Relationship Manager BUC Contract non-firm grid access with power limitation Grid User Distribution System Optimiser Scenario 1 Contract grid access with new connection options Scenario 2 Manage the grid connection contract and ensure the settlement process Scenario 3 Review the grid connection contract DER Customer End Customer MV-LV 30/03/2015 Interaction Workshop 7
