“…For a thorough analysis and list of the communication protocols and standards refer to [12]. IEC 61850 is an application layer standard which is a superset of UCA 2.0 and is primarily designed with intra-substation communication in mind [13]. It can also be used between substations or control centers (IEC 62445-1 and -2) and for metering applications.…”

Intelligent buildings are based on the use of smart metering devices. Smart metering provides instantaneous and accumulative metering information to the service providers on electricity, gas, water etc. This information is also given to the customers for the purpose of reduction of costs, energy consumption and emission of CO2. The customers' saving of energy can be adapted dynamically using smart metering devices: this helps that the power generation and consumption are equally distributed in the smart grid. Liberalization of the metering market requires few strong security and privacy requirements for the metering data. Governmental organizations are responsible for the permanent correct delivery of metering data and are able to control and maintain the metering devices. The status of current smart metering progress in different countries is given in the paper with examples of successfully managed smart metering projects. Smart Metering Systems Smart meterA smart meter is a device installed at the consumer's premises (house or a facility) for measuring the consumption of commodities such as gas, water and electricity. The consumption of commodities can be measured in terms of volume or energy, e.g., gallons of water, cubic feet of gas or kilowatt hours of electricity. Smart meters are an advanced form of the traditional electromechanical devices with the ability to measure consumption of commodities in real-time and with the ability to communicate over one or more wired or wireless networks. They are equipped with digital displays for displaying the consumption of commodities and communication units for communication over a network. Nowadays, an energy importer / consumer can be an exporter / producer at the same time. The smart meters should therefore be capable to measure the amount of energy exported as well as imported.

“…The IEC 61850 standard [13] has been adopted for substation automation for years which models substation equipments and functions as abstract objects to improve the interoperability among Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs). Recent efforts are being made to expand the scope of IEC 61850 to the whole power networks [5] and harmonize it with CIM towards a comprehensive standard data definition to enable monitoring, control or protection applications developed on different platforms to represent and exchange information in a consistent format, and in turn, enable seamless data communication throughout various voltage levels across the overall distribution networks. Therefore, CIM and IEC 61850 are suggested to build standard data model in AuRA-NMS solution and they could be further extended if needed to meet certain requirements [7].…”

Abstract-Power distribution networks with distributed generators (DGs) can exhibit complex operational regimes which makes conventional management approaches no longer adequate. This paper looks into key communication infrastructure design aspects, and analyzes two representative evolution cases of Active Network Management (ANM) for distributed control. Relevant standard initiatives, communication protocols and technologies are introduced and underlying engineering challenges are highlighted. By analyzing two representative case networks (meshed and radial topologies) at different voltage levels (33kV and 11kV), this paper discusses the design considerations and presents performance results based on numerical simulations. This study focuses on the key role of the telecommunications provision when upgrading and deploying distributed control solutions, as part of future ANM systems.

“…The aim of this IEC standard-developed by the IEC Technical Committee TC 57-is to harmonize the information and data used in power utility automation in order to simplify the interoperability between heterogeneous devices from different vendors. The standard consists of ten different parts covering the topics modelling, configuration and communication whereas the model data are provided in an object-orient way [3,6,10,12,23]. The modelling aspect is related to the mapping of physical system data into the IEC 61499 data model.…”

Abstract. Availability and functionality of reliable and efficient electric energy systems are pre-requisites for economic and social welfare. The continuous growth of electric energy consumption as well as the upcoming large-scale integration of distributed and renewable energy production units (e.g. photovoltaic system, wind turbines, etc.), result in a more and more complex electric network. Current developments in the power and energy distribution domain lead to active distribution networks (i.e. Smart Grids) to overcome limitations and shortcomings of actual approaches. Several standardisation bodies, international organisations and various projects state that one major precondition for the realisation of the vision Smart Grids is the implementation of intelligent devices. In order to realise such intelligent devices several topics (e.g. communication, control, safety, etc.) have to be taken into account. A key topic in the area of Smart Grids development is the standardisation issue. In order to develop interoperable solutions international standards have to be taken into account. The main scope of this work is to discuss a simulation-based validation approach for testing and validating standard-based implementations of intelligent devices in Smart Grids.
