OVERVIEWThis 1-day seminar provides an in-depth discussion on a proven framework for capital planning to identify, justify and prioritize investments in the electric grid to build the grid of the future that will meet the needs of tomorrow’s customers, regulations and markets.
This seminar covers the following “hot” issues:• What does the grid of tomorrow look like?• The market and trends toward grid vs generation vs transmission investment• Establishing modern grid construction, operations and maintenance standards• Leveraging the latest tools and techniques for grid planning• Grid data-mapping required for successful modern planning• Field data gathering culture, tools and techniques• Quantifying grid performance improvements achieved through upgrades/investments• Incorporating total lifecycle costs into grid capital planning• Optimizing and sequencing grid investments for constrained budgets• Track performance of grid investments toward goals• Continuous improvement in capital planning• How to think about grid planning from a FERC accounting, capital investment point of view
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?• Capital investment managers• Distribution and grid planning managers• Standards owners and managers• Asset management leaders and managers• Asset data maintenance managers• Grid operations and maintenance leaders• Regulatory staff

8:00 – 8:30 am Registration and Continental Breakfast
8:30 am – 5:00 pm Course Timing
12:00 – 1:00 pm Group Luncheon
1. We Should Shift Attention to Distribution Investment vs Transmission & Generation! a. Why spend on distribution now? b. What does the future grid look like with DER, electronification and customer options c. Load and grid defections d. Utility sustainability e. Reliability, resiliency, sustainability, and the other metrics the grid is being held to2. Integrated and Holistic Planning a. Proactive investment necessary to achieve the grid of the future (reactive break fix won’t get us there, puts us at extreme risk) b. Integrated projects offer more efficient deployment of capital and achieve greater overall system benefits, as well as supporting future directions c. Align planning and asset management teams to work together3. Evaluate the Existing Grid Performance and Adherence to Modern Design and Construction Standards a. Order of prioritization often determined by performance, age or both b. Utilization of a system scorecard that allows for performance comparisons and tracking4. Develop Projects to Improve System Performance, Renew Aged Assets and Increase Compliance with Standards Through Integrated Holistic Planning a. Understanding planning tools and their uses (e.g. CYME, Windmill, PSSE and more) b. Modernization projects modeled in detail for efficient engineering and implementation c. Simulate performance (e.g. reliability, hosting capacity, etc.)) impacts from each upgrade or modernization5. Capital Planning of Distribution Projects (Bundled Projects) a. Compile the estimated financial costs of the projects and expected benefits in our business case evaluation framework which includes both monetized and other quantified values (i.e. SAIDI/SAIFI improvement) b. Run numerous capital outlay and project sequencing scenarios considering multiple constraints ranging from the availability of capital to the technical readiness of various solutions proposed (and supporting infrastructure) c. Ongoing strategy after initial capital project to continue proactive approach d. What parts of the planning process can I capitalize?6. Monitor and Track the Performance of Implemented Projects Against Various KPIs a. Spend b. Schedule c. Performance d. ROI/ROC e. Customer satisfaction?7. Operationalizing the Approach and Process for Continued Grid Modernization and Customer Benefits!
