Objectives of the IGCC
• The Intelligent Coordinating Committee is responsible for facilitating communication and coordination on PES activities related to grid modernization to minimize duplication of effort internally and to efficiently utilize resources external to the PES.
• Develop a PES centric smart grid roadmap• Outreach and education - ensure that PES is
recognized as a leader in grid modernization standards and best practice development
IGCC Organization
Officer elections held 7/29/2010
Proposal to utilize 4 year terms to be consistent with other committees
Chairman: Erich W. Gunther
Vice-Chairman: Steve Pullins
Secretary: Doug Houseman
Webmaster: Vacant
IGCC Activities
• Communications– Smart Grid Super Sessions at T&D– Innovative Smart Grid Technologies
Conference 2013– Our web site – need a web content manager
• http://sites.ieee.org/igcc/
– IEEE Smart Grid Website• http://smartgrid.ieee.org/
– Smart Grid tutorials – SG-101, 201 …– IEEE SG Vision 2050 effort support
IGCC Activities
• Coordination– Draft list of Smart Grid standards sponsored
by PES• Approved standards• Other projects in development
– Questionnaire to Committee, Subcommittee and Working Group Chairmen• Validate standards list• Identify cross-cutting issues
IGCC Activities
• Refine and maintain standards list– New task force formed – no activity – need do over
• Develop PES smart grid road map– New working group formed – no activity – need do over– Liaisons to technical committees solicited
• ISGT 2013 Planning and Support– http://ieee-isgt.org/– George Arnold and Saifur Rahman chairs– We are responsible tutorial program

PES SG Roadmap Discussion - Content• Vision – future scenarios• Context Identification:
– Global aspects, localization issues (policy, law)– Time horizon of roadmap needs to be defined (e.g. 2030)– Relationships with legacy and current construction– Managing differing technology obsolescence time frames– Stakeholder identifications
• Existing environment – the catalog• Application Requirements – from where?• NIST/SGIP Domain mapping• External coordination• Gap identification• Mapping to committees / WG’s• Work planning• Architecture – how do they fit together• Relevant technologies
Use Case for using the Roadmap
• What is value proposition?• Prioritizing standards development• Identifying key industry issues that need solutions• Supporting needs of PES members beyond standards
– E.g. SG training, workforce development
• Tool to coordinate with other societies and organizations• Tool to discover what kinds of standards are needed
before application deployment• Tool for WG chairs to see how their efforts fit in to overall
PES mission
Issues
• What is the starting point – where does the road begin
• What is the optimization function – efficiency, maintain reliability, cost, greenness?
• What is the end of the road – future state scenario(s)? Or key milestones associated with those scenarios. Where do the roads diverge in multiple scenario’s– Percentage of DG, PV, EV, etc.
Issues
• Standards need to lead implementations– Standards now, implementations take place
and persist over decades• How to prune the potential divergent
branches– Productization needs that for example– Identification of commonalities
• Where do existing deployments fit in
Future Scenario Sources
• CEA 21 future scenarios– Then EPRI/EEI derivatives/expansions
• IEEE SA long term vision effort
How to Build the Roadmap
• Central or Distributed?• How to build by in by PES silo’s, other
societies, and other external organizations• Relationship to long term vision SA effort
– Yes, closely related. SA vision a bit longer term• SA More focused on technologies• 5 year snapshots beyond 2030• More of a focus on academics (in close
coordination with the practitioners)
How to Build the Roadmap
• Meetings of WG chairs and external organizations leaders– Share expectations to participate– Do this at Detroit GM
• What are the motivators?– How is value recognized by the stakeholders
• Need a strawman to help articulate the concept– Maybe focus on the use case for the roadmap – which identifies
the key stakeholders and value proposition
• Quick start – maybe a surveymonkey poll of some sort– Target WG chairs– Capture existing vision statements, smart grid

6. Other business
Liaisons• Ask WG chairs what organizations they have liaisons
with that we should be aware of• UCIug, UTC, NEMA, NERC, SGIP, FERC, NARUC,
Cigre, China SG, JIC, SAE, ISO, ANSI, EEI, EPRI, NRECA, APPA, RUS, UL, DOE, CE, ETSI, CSA, MIL
• GIS community – GITA, OGC• Building Community – BOMA, CABA• District Energy – IDEA – International District Energy
Association• LEED community• Dave Bakken – NASPI, WAMPAC, COMSOC• SA – noted that joint standards development agreements
are in place
Other Activity Updates
• 2030• 1547• …• ETCC White paper on SG technologies
– 5-8 page range– SST stuff
