Smart Urbanization – Key to Sustainable
Cities
This will lead to an increase in “megacities”. Urbanization propelled by
economic reforms are putting cities under perpetual pressure of population
concentration and energy intensive growth mode.
Multimode of key problems like high urban densities, traffic congestion, energy
inadequacy, unplanned development and lack of basic services.
Urbanization is also contributing significantly to climate change as 20
largest cities consume 80% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.
Urbanization on the positive side provides an unparalled urban planning
opportunity to pre-address social and environmental problems, by upgrading of
facilities and networks in existing urban centers.
Smart urbanisation is the key to safer cities of tomorrow with high-level
integration of existing technologies to deliver a smart energy network,
enhanced electricity transmission, energy efficient transportation, and low
carbon building footprints.

Smart City Function The primary functions of cities:
To offer citizens better opportunities to develop their personal andentrepreneurial potential.
To provide the right environment, backed by efficient and affordableservices and infrastructures.
Smart solutions are not to be seen as a cost to the city, but as aninvestment.
They need to be planned and implemented as such.
Building up smart cities requires the development of the rightenvironment for smart solutions to be effectively adopted and used.
Need to incentivize citizens to adopt smarter ways of living andinteracting within and with the city.
Smart cities need to naturally grow into the urban fabric.

13
What exactly is a Smart Grid?
A smart grid is not a piece of hardware or a computer system
but, rather, a concept. The smart grid is bout an intelligent
electric delivery system that responds to the needs of and
directly communicates with consumers.
Electric companies will know the consumption of individual
consumers at any given time because smart grid technology helps
markets interact with consumers.
The electric system will adapt to new conditions without human
intervention once a smart grid is in place.
14
Smart grids have three main applications:
enabling active consumer contribution, enhancing
physical networks, and optimizing grid
monitoring and control
15
Simplified View of the Traditional Grid with Local
Sources of Supply and Storage
16
Smart grid devices are intended to be deployed throughout electricity networks
17
Smart Grid Benefits Lower electricity rates due to the ability to improve the overall efficiency
of the system operation, in particular by shifting peak demand.
Improved reliability: fewer and shorter outages
Improved ability to detect and respond to attacks and outages related to thegrid
Improved ability to incorporate intermittent alternative energy sources, suchas wind and solar
Improved information to consumers, allowing them to make more-informedchoices about electricity consumption.
What policies could be implemented or changed to help overcome the identifiedtechnological, economic, and regulatory barriers?
18
Smart Grid Uncertain Costs Digital technologies have inherent weaknesses and have a
limited life expectancy.
Difficulties in determining obsolescence of technology:
Estimates of reasonable replacement costs;
Projections of technological evolution and progress.
Forecasts in cost savings:
Cost of electrical components is decreasing;
Marginal costs are decreasing because of growth in production;
Indirect efficiency gains or lack of compatibility can greatly
alter cost recovery
19
Uncertainties related to
Smart Grid Benefits Benefits are often long-term:
High upfront capital costs;
Long lead times can face changes in exogenous variables during
construction (e.g. input costs, regulation).
Different types of functions or technology may generate
individual benefits, while others provide benefits that
mutually reinforce those of related technologies (e.g. HVDC and
FACTS).
The role played by consumers in the market is still uncertain:
Detailed consumption data still not ubiquitous;
The extent to which customers are willing to participate is
uncertain.

Protecting Smart Grid Consumers
PRIVACY, DATA OWNERSHIP AND
SECURITY ISSUES
Customer data ownership
Access to and use of these
data
Privacy and security of
customer data (e.g. against
risk of surveillance or
criminal activity)
Sale or transfer of customer
data
22
Smart Grid Policy
Recommendations
POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS
Regulators should use the levers at their disposal to promoteadoption of smart-grid technologies based on the principle ofmaximizing net benefits to the system (versus just costminimization of the investment).
Regulators should develop efficient pricing regimes fordistributed generation, reflecting the overall net marginalbenefit (or cost) of generation and recognizing the use of thedistribution system as a type of public good.
Regulators should recognize that the net benefits of smart-gridtechnologies may differ from subsystem to subsystem because ofsystem-specific variables, such as previous investment pathsand the degree of customer responsiveness to electricityprices.
Regulators should consider forward-looking test cases becausehistorical data will not adequately represent the newfunctionality of a modernizing grid
23
Smart Grid OMS Most Outage Management Systems (OMS) use sophisticated
prediction engines based on customer phone calls and networkmodels to determine outage locations
An OMS linked to a smart grid will rely on a sensor network forfaster, more accurate response.
In a smart grid, the OMS will converge with the distributionmanagement system (DMS) to form an automated analytic engine.
The crux of the smart grid is the ability to communicate thestate of the system from the sensor network to both the utilityand the customers
24
Consumer Electric Usage Data
25
Smart House
Consumers automatically pre-program appliances to turn on when
prices are lower.

habits
26
Producers + Consumers = Prosumers
27
Examples of citizens as prosumers
A resident that participates in
a microgrid serving a smart
city can draw and consume
electrical power from the
microgrid during high usage
periods and can provide in
return, electrical power from
alternative energy sources,
such as solar, wind or fuel
cell during low usage periods.
Individuals providing
information platforms, such as
applications for smart phones,
which citizens can then use to
exchange information.
The Internet of things To add intelligence to existing infrastructure, new digital equipment and
devices are strategically deployed to complement existing equipment.
This new layer of digital equipment connects all assets in what can be
described as an ‘Internet of Watts’ – but which is in fact an example of the
Internet of Things (IoT) in action.
The IoT is built by integrating Internet- connectivity into all kinds of
plant, equipment and devices, connecting those devices in intelligent
networks, and using data analytics to extract meaningful and actionable
insights from them
In the context of the smart grid, this means distributing computing
intelligence throughout the infrastructure
This includes everything from embedded sensors in wind turbine vanes that
control its pitch, rotation and function in real-time response to changing
wind conditions, to substation control systems that respond quickly to
events and minimize production downtime associated with network disturbances
– in both cases without human intervention.
28
The Internet of things
29
The Internet of things
However, the real value of IoT is
that it creates opportunities to
realize the potential of data
that resides in existing,
unconnected infrastructures and,
using data analysis, to extract
insight and intelligence from
them.
After gathering data about every
aspect of the electricity supply
chain, system operators can use
powerful analytics, simulation
models and what-if scenarios to
create more precise predictions
about a wide variety of factors
from grid status to weather
conditions.
The possibilities associated with
predictive analytics and the
transition from reactive to
proactive operations is one of
the defining and most important
features of a smart grid. It
enables electricity companies and
grid system operators to

Smart Grid Tools
Tools used with special applications by K&A for smart grid design include:
• GIS
• BIM
• Integrating Renewables
• Digitizing the grid
• Supporting Utilities
• Electrical Vehicle provision
• Mega data input handling
42
Benefits of GIS
The power of GIS helps utilities understand the relationship of its assets to each other.
From a smart grid perspective, GIS allows utilities to visualize the electric and communications systems and the relationship that exists between them.
GIS can show the real-time view of the grid and note where things are changing.
GIS (as compared with a SCADA system) shows the complete state of the grid, represented by a realistic model in a way that people understand.
GIS is used to determine optimal locations for smart grid components.
GIS can provide a spatial context to the analytics and metrics of a smart grid.
Utilities able to build a GIS on an accurate land base. Since GIS has been used by utilities for more than 25 years, it predates GPS.
43
GIS Makes the Smart Grid
Smart Since the idea behind the smart grid is to add more monitoring
capability and control to the electric system, enterprise GIS isfundamental to its success.
GIS is indeed a transformational technology. GIS contribute to thetransformation of the grid from a largely passive and blind systemto an interactive, intelligent one.
GIS is a wonderful tool to help in the development of the smartgrid itself
GIS makes the smart grid smart

BIM for Smart Built
Environments BIM is being described as a game-
changing information and communicationstechnology (ICT) and cultural processfor the construction and smartbuildings sector.
BIM is a methodology enabled by a setof software tools and processes forfacilitating the creation and use ofthe digital representation of thephysical and functional characteristicsof a facility
BIM introduces exchangeable informationformats, i.e. International FoundationClasses (IFC), for modeling andvisualizing building entities in 3D.
BIM facilitates the conveyance ofbuilding information from the designphase throughout the building lifecycle, supporting cost management,construction management and facilitymanagement.
46
Smart Grid Interface
47
BIM for Smart Built
Environments SBE (Smart Built Environments): SBE refers to a built environment that has been embedded with
smart objects, such as sensors and actuators, Smart Meters
etc… with computing and communication capabilities making the
environment sufficiently ‘smart’ to interact intelligently.
SBE aims to improve personal safety comfort and productivity
and to better support the operation and management of
buildings.
SBE will be expected to harness its new technological
capabilities to achieve an unprecedented level of energy
efficiency
48
Philosophy of SBE
A designer’s job during built environment design will
be to think of and enable the building to be a learning
entity that, once operational, will improve its own
efficiency through the experience of operating the
building itself and through interaction with people.
In doing this, the building will apply experience to
information and acquire knowledge about itself and its
surroundings, with and without human interaction.
This is the concept of the Building Internet of Things
Design and operational teams will need to enhance their
core engineering skills by partnering with IT experts,
in order to create a virtual, or information
architecture that overlays the physical building
architecture and design.
49
BIM for Smart Built Environments
Rising opportunities for Smart
Grid K&A with our designers are investigating tools to
provide advanced energy management of Smart Grid
connected SBE where smart objects and distributed
energy resources are deployed.
K&A follows Autodesk group research attempts to
integrate BIM with sensors and meters to provide 3D
visualization of building performance and life-cycle
operation. The Virtual Real-time Information System
(VRIS) combines an BIM tool with a real-time sensor
engine called the Virtual Real-time Operating Centre to
provide building management functions.

Grid
51
Model Achievement:
With the real-time data from smart meters & sensors are collected and
stored in a database, energy management and analysis in BIM software
are facilitated and achieved.
Real-time generated data shows the current energy production capacity
and indicates how many loads can be supplied off the power grid.
Weather, temperature, building and occupant data from sensors form a
view of the present and future energy generation/consumption.
Building Information Modelling
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is being described as a game-changinginformation and communications technology (ICT) and cultural process for theconstruction and smart buildings sector.
It is a collaborative way of working, underpinned by digital technologies,which unlock more efficient methods of designing, creating and maintainingassets.
BIM embeds key product and asset data into a 3D computer model that can beused for effective management of information throughout a project lifecycle– from earliest concept through to operation.
BIM is now being used as a basis to support specialist simulation analysissuch as people movement and occupancy, microclimate and carbon reduction
52
K&A facing challenges in Smart Grid
Design Challenges to effectively realizing the smart grid:
Every opportunity brings new challenges with it.
Smart grid is no exception to this rule.
A variety of challenges can affect smart grid deployments –from regulatory and legislative actions to financing and customer acceptance
K&A geared itself to handle the challenges with moving toward a smarter grid, and the role played by smarter design in overcoming those challenges.
53
Smart Grid Initiatives Managing the various aspects of energy delivery (generation,
transmission and distribution) in the new electric grid
entails:
• Intelligent Devices
• Two-way Communications
• Smart Systems and Management Software
Utilities need to know how to leverage all of this technology
for its benefit along its customers
Smarter Demand
Smarter Supply
Demand Response = Smart
Grid
54
Challenges of Distributed and
Renewable Generation:Other components coming onto the grid are the distributed and the renewable generation resources.
This implies solar panels on rooftops and parking decks or evenout in the landscape
Traditional energy consumers can now become energy producers
Challenge of Electric vehicles:
• Surge in electricity demand when people get home from work andplug in their vehicles
• Each vehicle equivalent to the power need of an airconditioning unit of about 6 kilowatts, all at about the sametime.
55
56
Net Metering
Grid Digitization
Challenges for digitizing the grid: the old and new need to
effectively coexist
Smarter grid requires overlaying existing analog grid
infrastructure - things such as poles, wires, transformers and
even substations - with new digital technologies.
This overlay can create additional complexities. The new
infrastructure design must take into consideration existing
infrastructure.
For example, a company may design a “last-mile” communications
network for its existing distribution system.
To consider how existing infrastructure such as substations,
transformers or even buildings might benefit from adding
communication capabilities that provide information back to the
utility.
57
Mega DataChallenge of managing new data input to bring in and manage newdata inputs:
As the grid grows smarter, more and more data about the gridwill become available - whether additional data about anexisting distribution network or new information from adistributed generation source.
Smart design tools should be able to effectively aggregate thesedata and make them available to planners, designers andpersonnel maintaining the system.
Smart design tools should begin to connect the informationavailable at the customer-level with utility-grade systems.
Utilities should embrace a smarter design process similar to BIMthat will enable them to make better decisions, so that all gridcomponents – old and new, smart and perhaps not so smart - cansuccessfully coexist and thrive in a smart grid.
58
Supporting Utilities up to Private
Client
Limit of Works:
Utilities will have to consider and design for factorsbeyond their own grids.
New grid designs will have to account for actions beyondthe meter, whether it is a consumer plugging in anotherelectric vehicle or installing new solar panels.
Utilities will have to rethink, and most likely, redesignexisting parts of the grid to accommodate these end-userchanges and bidirectional power flows.
Utilities will also have to issue consider where their
design efforts stop.
