European Policy – 2030 vision



• Integration of RE (2020 targets)

• Move towards integrated electricity markets

• Growing influence from neighboring TSO networks

• Driven as part of the new ENTSOE Network Codes

�Need for a standard to exchange models

The enabler for Wide Area Look Ahead

The drivers towards CGMES



Need for Better Network Model Management (NMM) Solution (Ref EPRI NMM Initiative)

• Growing demand for faster model updates and model accuracy across the Utility Enterprise (Operations, Planning, Markets).

• Responsibility of maintaining the network models across organizational boundaries.

• Ease integration challenges across tools and processes for different model validations and analysis needs.

• Managing different levels of details for the Network Model needed by different business

• Reduce cost in maintaining tools, processes and people required for NMM activities



Role of NMM in business processes



GE Network Model Management Vision

• Fulfils distinct needs of different business processes such as Planning , Operation and Markets.

• Provides the tools needed to efficiently create and maintain the models

• Performs model validation within the modeling environment for greater efficiency

• Eliminates duplicate modelling work, facilitating better integration across different business and processes

• Allows a streamlined IDCF / DACF / D2CF process

• Allows model merge / IGM / CGM management

A collaborative modelling solution which:

CIMNet Component of NMM

• Fulfils the case construction and validation needs

• Model based and embraces adaptors to various exchange formats

• High performance focus

• Data partitioning capabilities

• Automation ready through web services

• Domain expert friendly

• Modular component

• Leverages high performance GE network applications



Case construction for versatile deployment

• Multiple use-cases and multiple deployments require multiple sources and different level of details

• Case construction step for every business process and every use-case is different

• Case construction designed to empower the users



Model Composition capabilities

• External Model – flexible and consistent method to transform from external formats; even future planning cases

• Dovetailing the Internal and External – CIM based modelling enables easy fit between the internal and external.

• Incremental update (project) capabilities

• Scriptable interface
