Smart Grids. According to the European Technology Platform Smart Grid (ETPSG)2, a Smart Grid is an electricity network that can intelligently integrate the actions of all users connected to it -generators, consumers and those that do both- in order to efficiently deliver sustainable, economic and secure electricity supplies. A smart grid uses innovative products and services together with intelligent monitoring, control, communication and self-healing technologies3 in order to: • Better facilitate the connection and operation of generators of all sizes and technologies; • Allow electricity consumers to play a part in optimizing the operation of the system; • Provide consumers with greater information and options for choice of supply; • Significantly reduce the environmental impact of the whole electricity supply system; • Maintain or even improve the existing high levels of system reliability, quality and security of supply; • Maintain and improve the existing services efficiently; • Xxxxxx market integration towards a European integrated market. The definition provided by the Energy Networks Association (ENA)4 is: The Smart Grid is everything from generation through to home automation with a smart meter being an important element, with every piece of network equipment, communications technology and processes in between contributing to an efficient and smart grid. A completely Smart Grid of the future will enable appliances in the home to communicate with the smart meter and enable the networks to ensure efficient use of infrastructure, demand response and energy management. These are all critical to making the most of intermittent renewables and keeping the lights on in an affordable low-carbon energy future. 2.1.1 The role of DSOs in a smart grid environment
Smart Grids. Within the scope of MAtchUP Project activity, smart meters will be deployed to demo sites to enable data gathering and upload to the Urban Platform with a standardized format. Also, smart meters for the dwelling in the new construction will be installed and integrated to BEMS which will allow residents to manage and monitor the energy. The action involves introduction of smart meters in newly built area of Kepez Santral District as well as to large scale renewable energy generation facilities connected to the grid. This will enable development of dynamic data management. The data will be aggregated at various levels from individual consumers (dwelling) to building and even to district level. To complement available data, supply of complementary standardized aggregated data, supply of contextual data and integration into the urban data platform.
