3 Helping solve the energy trilemma Storage fits as a growing part of the solution 3

4 Project Summary Demonstrate an innovative Internet of Energy (IoEn) platform automated scheduling, aggregation, dispatch, and performance validation of network optimized DER Develop a scalable approach for the fast registration and automated dispatch of DER Simultaneously manage: 1) System level regulation (Category 2) 2) Local distribution support functions 3) Customer QoS Demonstrated and tested at Group NIRE s utility-connected microgrid test facility in Lubbock, Texas, integrated with local utility monitoring, control, and data acquisition systems 4

5 Project Summary The Internet of Energy (IoEn) enables a multi-party platform where participants can broadcast both their needs and their availability to perform services Recognizes that distributed energy assets will typically exist: Behind-the-meter at customer sites Parties Residential Customers C&I Customers Microgrid Operators 5

6 Project Summary The Internet of Energy (IoEn) enables a multi-party platform where participants can broadcast both their needs and their availability to perform services Recognizes that distributed energy assets will typically exist: Which are located a specific node on a distribution system Parties Utilities 6

7 Project Summary The Internet of Energy (IoEn) enables a multi-party platform where participants can broadcast both their needs and their availability to perform services Recognizes that distributed energy assets will typically exist: Which is located within a specific sub-load area Parties Sub-Load A Utilities DR Providers Market Operators 7

8 Project Summary The Internet of Energy (IoEn) enables a multi-party platform where participants can broadcast both their needs and their availability to perform services Recognizes that distributed energy assets will typically exist: Which exist within an ISO or Balancing Area Parties ISOs/RTOs Balancing Authorities Market Operators 8

10 ARPA-E NODES Team Expertise in power systems operations and control Industry accepted modeling and simulation tools Independent testing and performance evaluation EOS Industry leading software to integrate, network, and economically operate distributed energy systems Facilitating local and macro operational decisions through data methoddriven optimization Fully operational multi- MW, dynamic renewables integration and testing facility Distribution-connected microgrid ARPA-E CHARGES microgrid testing 10

11 DNV GL Modeling and Validation Generation Transmission Distribution Commercial, Industrial & Residential Bulk Storage>50 MW Aggregated Utility Scale2-50 MW Utility Scale 100kW-2MW Distributed Scale 25kW-100kW KERMIT Grid Simulation Bulk Storage Applications Large renewable support shifting, smoothing or firming Fossil generation support Contingency Reserve, Resource adequacy ES-Grid Distribution Valuation Utility Scale Applications Distribution circuit upgrade deferral PV Smoothing Microgrid Optimizer Customer Scale Applications Customer bill management Outage mitigation 11

12 Bill management + Frequency Regulation Storage shared between utility and customer Figure showing customer bill management optimization under dual demand charge tariffs and a three tier energy tariff high load summer day Shared services case study details School in San Diego with behind-the-meter PV and storage Customer uses storage for bill-management and reliability Utility reserves inverter capacity for PV smoothing on distribution circuit. Figure showing storage set point management such that utility PV smoothing operation does not affect customer bill management operation 12

13 Bill management + Frequency Regulation Storage shared between market operator and customer As opportunities arise for aggregated storage to participate in grid and market support applications, aggregator control layers will require further layers of validation Example application: Bill management + Frequency Regulation Aggregator assesses opportunity costs of available storage capacity based on forecasts of customer requirements Integrated forecasting and optimization problem Grid services secondary to primary customer requirements 13

17 Major Tasks and Milestones Techno-Economic modeling (DNV GL) Baseline behind-the-meter DER operation and availability Baseline utility distribution network Derive synthetic ISO regulation through market simulations under 33% and 50% renewable penetration scenarios DER aggregation and controls (Geli) Develop energy application and Micro-market servers for aggregation and dispatch through IoEn platform DER Integration and Site Testing (GroupNIRE) Field testing deployment of DER resources under multiple meters Full implementation of the IoEn platform onsite Validation and Auditing (DNV GL) Development of auditing protocols, billing and contractual models Validation of system performance 17

18 ARPA-E NODES Project Demonstrate an innovative Internet of Energy (IoEn) platform aggregation, dispatch, and performance validation of network optimized DER Scalable approach for the fast registration and automated dispatch of DER Simultaneously manage: 1) System/Market level regulation 2) Local distribution support functions 3) Customer energy bill 18

19 Conclusions Diverse team assembled to develop a scalable, validated IoEn platform IoEn will demonstrate heterogenous DER simultaneously managing system level regulation and local distribution support functions managed and quantified impact on customer QoS Diversity of DER assets will demonstrate that devices with varying characteristics can be coordinated and aggregated 19

20 Industry Advisory Board and Utility Integration Plan Industry Advisory Board (IAB) Bi-annual advisory meetings will be held with industry advisory board TREIA will have role on IAB Utility Integration Plan Integration plan will be developed to translate integration requirements into design specification for communication and control Hardware Partners Platform will facilitate expanded performance and integration testing of DER devices Work with power, communication, and integration device developers Integrators or operators who want to investigate a specific piece of hardware 20
