Member Technology Update: Geo-spatial Outage Detection System

CESC Ltd Kolkata, Utility Member with ISGF since 2015 is India’s first fully integrated electrical utility company. CESC has been on an epic ride ever since 1899 in generating and distributing power in Kolkata and Howrah.

CESC, like all other utilities, have done AMR in HT, LT CT and DT metering segments 10 years back. However, unlike others, the idea was not limited to energy auditing and remote billing and data collection only. The AMR system, today, has been stretched to its full for value additions. Of which, the In-house developed outage detection system, consumer portal with half hourly consumption data and DT metering analytics are the most important. These applications helped CESC in remote billing, loss reduction, dynamic monitoring of assets, improvement of operational efficiency and customer satisfaction etc.

OSD is not a built-in feature of the existing AMR solutions. In CESC, AMR has been achieved by installing modems in tandem with the existing meters at HT, LTCT and DT segments. However, the modems are capable of sending SMS alerts to dedicated mobile numbers with its own id and status, upon occurrence of power failure / restoration. As modems are powered-up from the meter terminals at site, CESC used outage / restoration information of the modems as the raw input for power failures / restoration.

For further improvement into the reliability, the heart-beat (at 15 minute interval) functionality of the modem was used in validation logics. In-house developed outage detection for DT/LTCT/HT, accessible through CESC intranet, is used by CESC Operational Departments extensively for proactive response and faster outage restoration. The ODS has become back-bone in CESC's daily network management and operations.

Newly Developed Geo-spatial Outage Detection System (ODS)

As a continual improvement, Geo-spatial ODS has been

implemented where the outages / restorations appear as follows:

• Outage occurrence is depicted in flashing red icon

• Sustained outage, for last 15 minutes, appears with a rotating

red circle.

• Restored cases appear with a green tick, for 1 hour.

Image a) depicts the overall situation at a particular time, with DTs without power &

restored DTs, located sparsely. It also shows

localised outage at the top

Image b) indicates wide area outage, with DTs without power for

the last 15 minutes

Image c) indicates affected DTs in downstream network (HT feeder

tripping) in a particular area. It also shows restored DTs

in a different area

Image d) shows power outage occurrence time,

duration, name of the selected DT

Image e) shows supply restoration time for the

selected DT

Any DT, with outage marker, when selected on the map will show

name of the DT, outage occurrence time and duration. DTs, with

green tick will show the time of supply restoration.

Benefits:

• Outages on map – visual impact

• Easy understanding for call centre personnel

• Easy identification – wide area outage, localised fault, feeder

tripping etc.

The U.K. government and the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (OFGEM), the country's energy regulator, announced plans to upgrade the U.K.'s energy system and invest $320 million (£246 million) in battery storage over a 4-year span. The plan includes several measures to ease the approval and development of battery storage devices, including addressing cost recovery with some generators and simplifying the planning and grid connection process. Ofgem is also planning on modified generation license for battery storage, which could remove consumption charges that now can result in double charging for storage devices.

Under the Paris Agreement, Canada committed to reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 30% below 2005 levels by 2030, or a target of 523 megatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2e). In 2015, Canada's total GHG emissions were 722 Mt CO2e, which implies that Canada must reduce its GHG emissions by 28% within the next 14 years. Some Canadian provinces have already reduced their emissions by 30% compared to 2005 levels, namely Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

Distributed-scale Energy Storage Systems suppliers are developing flexible software platforms that can be integrated with distributed generation and building controls systems to reduce demand charge, according to Navigant Research. These software platforms can also serve as virtual power plants (VPPs) capable of analyzing, controlling, and optimizing a portfolio of systems.


With changing dynamics of both supply and demand in the electricity industry, including low natural gas prices, flat electricity demand due to increased efficiency, and robust growth of cheap, clean renewables, the term “baseload”—which historically has been used to refer to large coal and nuclear plants—is now outdated. That's the conclusion of new analysis released by The Brattle Group , a global economics consulting firm, which says grid planners and operators should be technology-neutral in finding the best energy resources to reliably meet the operational needs of the modern electricity system.

Amber Kinetics, maker of reportedly the first commercially available four-hour duration flywheel energy storage technology, and Enel, one of the world's leading integrated utilities with a presence in over 30 countries in five continents, signed a two-year deal to cooperate on jointly assessing the former firm's technology. The two plan to explore the possible development of future projects, too, the firms said. Enel continuously pursues highly efficient, sustainable operations by means of best available technologies based on a cost-benefit approach, they added. Toward that goal, the utility firm will measure and demonstrate the performance of Amber's flywheel systems, starting with two M32 (8kw x 4hrs = 32kwh) systems to be installed at Amber Kinetics' test facility in California.


The German federal capital of Berlin has emerged as a magnet and hotbed of distributed renewable energy and clean tech innovation. Numbering among Berlin's growing crop of new energy startups is Ubitricity, developer of what the company says is the world's cheapest and most compact means of retrofitting streetlamps and streetlights so that they can serve as electric vehicle (EV) charge points.


The GridWise Alliance released a whitepaper aimed at improving the conversation about battery energy storage applications on the grid. The paper highlighted recommendations for policymakers and regulators as they prepare to overcome the challenges to widespread implementation of energy storage technologies. The alliance has been at the forefront of educating legislators and regulators about the critical need to modernize our nation's electricity system. The whitepaper presents a list of 11 recommendations to address storage challenges. Source: http://www.indiasmartgrid.org/viewnews.php?id=3193

As part of Rocky Mountain Institute's Electricity Innovation Lab, RMI partnered with three leading utilities—Arizona Public Service (APS), Avista Utilities, and Con Edison—to explore best practices for utility innovation and the design, execution, and evaluation of utility pilot and demonstration projects.
