8 4 GENERAL OPERATIONAL REM-S REFERENCE ARCHITECTURE 4.1 CONCEPT DESCRIPTION This section describes the general concept behind the architecture of the Railway Energy Management System (REM-S), providing an overview of how the system has been built and the reference models followed. The detailed architecture of the system is also described. The Railway Energy Management System is an integrated solution aiming at achieving a more sustainable and optimised energy usage in European electric mainline railway systems. This can be obtained through a system monitoring the energy consumptions of the different subsystems of the railway network and their components and suggesting a smart solution for the optimisation of use of energy in the different parts of the system. Because of the distributed nature of the railway system, the system size, complexity and uncertainties, as well as the dynamic and moving nature of the loads, the energy management system can be based on dividing the railway system into different local areas (zones). At least one intelligent substation should be present in each zone, acting as interface for the zone entities. Hence, it should be able to communicate to the other local entities, to the intelligent substations of neighbouring zones and to the Control Centre, and through it to electricity market The Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) The architecture of the system has been developed according to the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM), i.e. a reference model of smart grid architectures for different sectors of application issued by the CEN - CENELEC - ETSI Smart Grid Coordination Group and consists in the optimisation of the energy flow through the railway system at different levels. The Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) is a three dimensional model, merging the dimension of five interoperability layers with two dimensions of the Smart Grid Plane, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1: Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) MRL-WP7- - Page 8 of 50 08/12/2015

9 The Smart Grid Plane is made up of Zones - representing the hierarchical levels of power system management (Process, Field, Station, Operation, Enterprise and Market) and Domains covering the complete electrical energy conversion chain: Bulk Generation, Transmission, Distribution, Distributed Energy Resources and Customers Premises. The five interoperability layers (Business, Function, Information, Communication and Component) cover the whole Plane representing the third dimension of the Smart Grid model. In order to allow a clear presentation of the architecture model, different interoperability layers are specified, as shown in Table 1. Layer Business Function Component Information Communication Description Represents the business view on the information exchange related to smart grids. SGAM can be used to map regulatory and economic (market) structures and policies, business models, business portfolios (products & services) of market parties involved. Also business capabilities and business processes can be represented in this layer. Describes functions and services including their relationships from an architectural viewpoint. The functions are represented independent from actors and physical implementations in applications, systems and components. The functions are derived by extracting the use case functionality which is independent from actors. The physical distribution of all participating components in the smart grid context. This includes system actors, applications, power system equipment (typically located at process and field level), protection and telecontrol devices, network infrastructure (wired / wireless communication connections, routers, switches, servers) and any kind of computers. Describes the information that is being used and exchanged between functions, services and components. It contains information objects and the underlying canonical data models. These information objects and canonical data models represent the common semantics for functions and services in order to allow an interoperable information exchange via communication means. To describe protocols and mechanisms for the interoperable exchange of information between components in the context of the underlying use case, function or service and related information objects or data models. Table 1: SGAM Interoperability Layers The power system can be represented by physical domains of the electrical energy conversion chain and hierarchical zones for the management of the electrical process; this is represented through the SGAM plane, as shown in Figure 2.

10 Figure 2: SGAM Plane The Smart Grid Plane covers the complete electrical energy conversion chain. Table 2 lists and describes the SGAM domains. Domain Bulk Generation Transmission Distribution DER Customer Premises Description Representing generation of electrical energy in bulk quantities, such as by fossil, nuclear and hydro power plants, off-shore wind farms, large scale solar power plant (i.e. PV, CSP) typically connected to the transmission system Representing the infrastructure and organisation which transports electricity over long distances Representing the infrastructure and organisation which distributes electricity to customers Representing distributed electrical resources directly connected to the public distribution grid, applying mall-scale power generation technologies (typically in the range of 3kW to kW).These distributed electrical resources may be directly controlled by DSO Hosting both- end users of electricity, also producers of electricity. The premises include industrial, commercial and home facilities (e.g. chemical plants, airports, harbours, shopping centres, homes). Also generation in form of e.g. photovoltaic generation, electric vehicles storage, batteries, micro turbines are hosted Table 2: SGAM Domains In Table 3 the definition of zones is provided. The zones reflect a hierarchical model considering the concept of aggregation and functional separation in power system management. MRL-WP7- - Page 10 of 50 08/12/2015

Including equipment to protect, control and monitor the process of the power system, e.g. protection relays, bay controller, any kind of intelligent electronic devices which acquire and use process data from the power system. Representing the areal aggregation level for field level, e.g. for data concentration, functional aggregation, substation automation, local SCADA systems, plant supervision Hosting power system control operation in the respective domain, e.g. Distribution Management Systems (DMS), Energy Management Systems (EMS) in generation and transmission systems, microgrid management systems, virtual power plant management systems (aggregating several DER), Electric Vehicle (EV) fleet charging management systems. Includes commercial and organisational processes, services and infrastructures for enterprises (utilities, service providers, energy traders ), e.g. asset management, logistics, work force management, staff training, customer relation management, billing and procurement Reflecting the market operations possible along the energy conversion chain, e.g. energy trading, mass market, retail market SGAM and REM-S Architecture Table 3: SGAM Zones The five layers defined in the SGAM have been identified in the REM-S architecture. Specifically, Information Layer and Communication Layer are considered in the scope of this proposal for TecRec. Information Layer should consist in the data model and takes into account smart grid standards that are compatible with railway standards. Communication Layer is composed by smart grid applications communication standards that can be applied to the railway domain Figure 3 represents the general architecture of the REM-S and highlights the different levels of optimisation, i.e. the three corresponding operational modes : Day Ahead Optimisation (DAO), Minute Ahead Optimisation (MAO) and Real Time Operation (RTO). On top of the diagram, the link to the electricity market is represented. This is performed by the EBDM, i.e. a module of the REM-S that determines the best way to purchase/sell the energy consumed/generated by the railway system managed by the REM-S.

Figure 3: REM-S Concept The Energy Buyer Decision Maker helps determining the best way of combining the available contracts with the participation in the spot markets to optimize the price of the energy. The EBDM module uses as an input a list of constraints supplied by an external Electricity Procurement Planner (EPP) (bidding strategy, long term constrains for the bidding ). The Electrical Market Forecast Provider sends to the EBDM information regarding market prices previsions, behaviour of future sessions of the electricity market. The zones (i.e. the intelligent substation) receive the day-ahead global optimisation plan from the Control Centre and implement it in their own area, locally accommodating unanticipated mismatches. As neighbouring zones are in contact, they can coordinate and resolve border issues about energy and power optimisation, like providing mutual support in case of variation of power demands and coordinating transition of trains. Multi-Agent System (MAS) technology is applied for implementing energy management system in the zones. Given that the generic load railway system interacts with the larger power system (public grid) and its market (electricity market), it makes sense to adopt a similar time structure for the energy optimisation, yielding three operational modes: The main aim of the Day Ahead Optimisation (DAO) is to calculate the optimum behaviour of the network for the next 24/48 hours horizon; it is usually done once a day or when the MAO asks for a recalculation (due to a big deviation not solved in the Minutes Ahead Optimisation) but the periodicity of the calculation is configurable. DAO is performed by the component Global Optimisation System (GOS); the GOS is an intelligent module responsible for making a plan for the next 24/48 depending to the forecasted energy profiles, in order to optimise energy consumption, power demand and cost in the whole system. The main output of this application, i.e. the optimised day ahead power profile per subnetwork is sent to the component Local Optimisation Application (LOS). MRL-WP7- - Page 12 of 50 08/12/2015

13 MAO is a minutes ahead optimisation process, performed by the LOS; the main aim of this process is to follow the optimised 24 hours ahead power profile per sub-network coming from the DAO throughout the next minutes. The time interval considered in MERLIN for the Minutes Ahead Optimisation is 15 minutes, but this periodicity can be configured differently. The optimisation process is usually done every 15 minutes or when there is a deviation between the forecasted and the real behaviour of the system during the 15 minutes process that cannot be solved by the RTO control. Local Optimisation System is responsible for making the plan for the next 15 minutes depending to the real time measuring results and forecasted energy profiles, in order to follow the global energy consumption plan of the system and optimise energy consumption and power demand at its own local area. The main aim of the Real Time Operation is to fulfil the calculated MAO profiles for the subnetwork (optimised sub-network 15 minutes or the remaining of 15 minutes power profile), taking into account the real time status and behaviour of all the components of the sub-network, as well as the surpluses and needs of the adjacent sub-networks. Figure 4 below represents the functions of the different operational modes above described and their implementation along the timeline. data trigger First 24 hrs - 15 mins 15 mins 15 mins 24 hrs...

In this architecture DAO runs a Global EMS (Energy Management System) for the whole railway network yielding energy, power or cost optimisation with a top-bottom approach based on train timetables and power estimation profiles, railway distribution network characteristics, Distributed Energy Resources estimated generation and External Consumers power estimated demand. In Minutes Ahead time slices, Local EMSs executed in each zone optimizes power profiles locally with the target of following Global EMS plan. The Local EMS is done by MRL-WP7- - Page 13 of 50 08/12/2015

14 coordinating resources to address fast, unanticipated occurrences, such as use of regenerated energy from trains, surplus energy stored in Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) or request of more energy for a train which is delayed. This level of optimisation is the link between centralized EMS and the Real Time Operation in all zone agents. Solving one centralized optimisation problem for the short term flexibilities in the massive railway system is unfeasible, while applying the MAS approach with Local EMS, the short term (Minutes Ahead) optimisation is achievable.

The actors part of the system are presented in this section. The different actors have relationships among themselves through the business use cases above described. The operational Railway Energy Management System should collaborate with internal and external partners, and carry out the optimization measures. REM-S includes wayside and onboard parts. Specifically, on wayside, the global and local optimisation should be carried out and interfaces with the energy market are implemented; on-board, the indications received from on ground optimisation are applied. The main business actors of the REM-S are described in the following. The Electricity Market Operator represents any company in charge of all the operations required for the electricity market operation (receiving the purchasing/selling bids, matching process, billing.). MRL-WP7- - Page 17 of 50 08/12/2015

18 The Electrical System Operator role in a wholesale electricity market is to manage the security of the power system in real time and co-ordinate the supply of and demand for electricity, in a manner that avoids fluctuations in frequency or interruptions of supply. The Grid Owner acts as Transmission System Operator (TSO) and Distribution System Operator (DSO). TSO is an entity entrusted with transporting energy in the form of electrical power on a national or regional level, using fixed infrastructure. DSO is responsible for operating, ensuring the maintenance of and, if necessary, developing the distribution system in a given area and, where applicable, its interconnections with other systems and for ensuring the long term ability of the system to meet reasonable demands for the distribution of electricity. Infrastructure Manager (IM) means any body or firm responsible in particular for establishing, managing and maintaining railway infrastructure, including traffic management and controlcommand and signalling; the functions of the Infrastructure Manager on a network or part of a network may be allocated to different bodies or firms. Railway Operator means any public or private undertaking licensed according to the "Directive 2012/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council," Official Journal of the European Union, European Union, 2012., whose principal business is to provide services for the transport of goods and/or passengers by rail with a requirement that the undertaking ensure traction; this also includes undertakings which provide traction only. It may possess the rolling stocks and it is authorized with the access to the railway infrastructure. An Energy Supplier refers to a party that supplies the customers or the market with electricity, and receives profits from the energy trading activities. 4.3 COMMUNICATION LAYER EBDM-GOS The information exchanged and the communication protocols between EBDM and GOS have been defined in the following table: EBDM-GOS GOS OUTPUT Energy required at each PCC PROTOCOL IEC /TASE.2 GOS INPUT Estimated average price of energy for each hour and PCC Price variations and warnings Not scheduled electricity open sessions PROTOCOL OpenADR OpenADR Customised protocol MRL-WP7- - Page 18 of 50 08/12/2015

Power required at each PCC divided in block of given likelihood, for each hour (from DAO Optimisation of power, energy and price to MAO Optimisation of energy and power ): IEC /TASE DOEM-LOS Standard IEC is proposed for data exchange between vehicles (DOEM) and ground (LOS). The application interface between these components is proposed in Information layer chapter via the communication connection using the IEC DOEM-IM server The communication between DOEM and IM server needs to be standardised for interoperability issues. However, the definition of the standard to be used is out of scope of this document, as it is operational related topic and different expert bodies are discussing the best standard in other forums.

This chapter does not propose the standardisation of neither the functions themselves, which are responsible in the individual vehicles or wayside components, nor the design and arrangement of the control equipment, but only the application interface between the vehicles (DOEM) and ground (LOS) via the communication connection using the IEC For interoperability issues, the following exchange of data should be standardised. cmp DOEM-LOS Components DOEM LOS FI_DOEM_LOS_Link F_DOEM_Link F_LOS_Link FI_LOS_MAO_Request F_DOEM_MAO F_LOS_MAO FI_DOEM_MAO_Calculation FI_DOEM_LOS_Report F_DOEM_Report F_LOS_Report FI_DOEM_LOS_Unlink F_DOEM_Unlink F_LOS_Unlink Figure 10: DOEM LOS Architecture Diagram Linking function DOEM should establish a connection with the LOS when the train enters its area of control. Areas of control (borders) and LOS addresses should be defined in the onboard infrastructure description file, using RailML, which can also be dynamically updated from ground using other service not described in this document. DOEM should also update the connection if there is a change in one of the fields (e.g. TrainMode). The LOS may take into account or not the vehicle in the energy management process depending on to its mode. For example, if the train is under commissioning, the LOS should know that MRL-WP7- - Page 23 of 50 08/12/2015
