5 Utility Benefits Smart Grid today Open standards for communications Network capacity Guaranteed interval data today Consumer and Societal Benefits Demand Response Pre-Payment Outage Response Consumer Messaging Comfort Efficiency Outage Response Two-way electric and gas Demand response today In-home displays (IHD), smart thermostats, load controls devices Software systems and consumer portals Outage Management Today 99% outage notifications 100% restoration notification

6 Smart Grid: Definition An electrical grid that has been enhanced through the use of digital technologies and that allows customers, utilities and society to make wise choices in how energy is produced, delivered and consumed. Ahmad Faruqui, The Brattle Group Deployment of the Smart Grid became U.S. policy with passage of the Energy Independence and Security Act of Also being promoted internationally (EU, Canada, SmartGrids.com, et al.)

8 Smart Grid: Efficiencies Galore System Reliability Power outages cost the U.S. $80 billion annually (DOE) Reductions in Peak Demand Demand response programs yield immediate demand drops of up to 47% (Rocky Mountain Inst.) Energy Efficiency 133 million metric tons of CO2 emissions as a result of grid inefficiency in 2003 (DOE) Consumer Participation Savings ranging from 1 to 20% when real-time feedback available (EPRI) Carbon Footprint Reduction Potential decrease (over 100 years) of between 110 and 270 gigatons of CO2 emissions (DOE) Optimized Asset Utilization Customer satisfaction improved via faster information to consumers (Energy Pulse) Reduced Labor Dependencies Call handling costs reduced by 25% when utility and customer share information (Energy Pulse)
