ABB Utility CommunicationIntroduction

Utility Communication - An Integrated Network


Power utilities applicationsTeleprotection

Teleprotection functionality – safeguarding the electrical grid

In case of malfunction the potential implications are tremendous

Blackouts

Destroyed primary equipment such as transformers or switchgears

Requirements on communication performance are very high

Hard real-time communication

Very deterministic data channels

Very high network availability

Very high dependability and security© ABB Group 5 October 2012 | Slide 3

Power utilities applicationsSCADA System

SCADA applications – the brain of the utility

Provides actual state of power grid

Allows remote control of substationsLoss of communication means loss of

power grid visibility

Based on international standards such as IEC 60870-5-101 or 104

Very reliable communication channel required

Real-time communication

Multiprotocol environment

Different and specific topologies need to be supported


Power utilities applicationsSmart Grid applications

Smarter Grids – the future has started

New communication requirements arise due to

Integration of renewable power generation

Possibility of multidirectional power flow

Integration of more sensors to get better visibility of the grid

New applications such as automatic meter reading or demand side management


Power utilities environmentUtility grade equipment

Utility environment – a challenge by itself

Hardware is exposed to severe substation environment

High electrical and magnetic fields

Extreme temperatures

Telecommunication equipment needs to work for many years extremely reliable in such environment


Power utilities environmentOther operational applications

Operate a power grid – more and more applications require communication

Additional applications help the utility to keep on power flowing

Remote supervision using IP camerasMetering system for supervision purposesWide are protection schemes

Remote maintenance of equipment for trouble shooting or upgrade purposes

Requirements on communications differ from application to application


Power utilities environmentMultiservice approach


2-wire

RS-232

IEEE C37.94

Ethernet

The communication network of a power utility needs to be of multiservice type, able to cover all communication needs

Provide each application the performance required

Guarantee the performance over the whole life time

Ensure that critical services are not influenced from non critical service, even under extreme conditions

OPEX should be reduced by

Easy and intuitive configuration of all services

Sophisticate network management system

ABB long term product support strategy

Life cycle of utility communication networks are usually significantly longer than in telecom industry

Most telecom equipment supplier follow the life cycle of the public telecom suppliers

Risk for utility that equipment is outphased before new investment is planed

Spare part problem

Maintenance problem

ABB follows an approach of a modular platform with continuous enhancement of the same

Therefore guarantee a very long equipment lifecycle

Ensure future upgradability without equipment exchange

Continuous development of ABB solutionsWhat comes next?

Applications are moving Ethernet/ IP

More Ethernet/ IP functionality on communication platform required

More bandwidth required for new applications such as VoIP, video surveillance over IP, …

Mission critical applications, such as protection signals still ask for TDM (SDH) backbone networks

SDH backbone interfaces will still be required …

but also packet switched backbone interfaces will be needed in future

Intelligent hybrid solution required providing full SDH functionality on one side and being prepared for packet switched solutions on the other side

Selecting the right network technology to avoid stranded assets

AMI network solutions deliver sufficient capacity for meter reading – but can’t support network requirements for other smart grid applications

Some utilities select an AMI network solution without considering future application and network needs

Cyber security threats are real and will continue to evolve over time

Challenges for smarter grid networks


Other applications representing higher traffic include

Substation video

PHEV integration

Mobile GIS

AVL

…and more in the future
