1 Building the Clean Energy Super Highway The Development of the Global Smart Grid and the Next Innovation Infrastructure A presentation for the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy April 25, 2011 Drew Bennett, Fletcher 08 [email protected] 1

2 A Look at the Next Infrastructure Revolution We want to know: what the big deal is. Is the grid really that dumb? And isn t the dumb grid good enough? what a smart grid is. How do we define it? What technologies & services are involved? What s driving investment? what it means for global trade & investment. Where are smart grids being built? What are the investment profiles? What does it mean for international trade? what the big picture looks like. What does this mean for global technology industries and why should we care? 2

3 The big deal Our dumb grid: Is the grid really that dumb? blackouts peaks and valleys line loss theft 19th century infrastructure Electric grid outages cost the equivalent of $500 per person per year in the U.S. 6 to 10% of electric production is lost before it even reaches the home. 30% of U.S. grid hardware is beyond is beyond replacement age. 3

4 What this is all about Costs of a dumb grid: Isn t the dumb grid good enough? debilitated network antiquated markets disconnected consumers 19th century business model 10% of all electricity generation assets, and 25% of distribution infrastructure are required to provide electricity for less than 5% of the hours in a year The amount of grid energy wasted per year could cool every home in the U.S. over the same period. 4

5 What this is all about 2000 to 2030: World Electricity Demand to Double Net Electricity Generation, China OECD (non US) Annual Kwh (trillions) Year Source: Energy Information Administration United States Non OECD: India and Other Asia Middle East and Africa Europe and Eurasia Central and South America 5

6 What this is all about President Eisenhower made an investment that revolutionized the way we travel, an investment that made our lives easier and our economy grow. Now, it s time to make the same kind of investment in the way our energy travels: to build a clean energy superhighway. Potential benefits: reliability efficiency carbon reduction expanded generation electric vehicle integration engaged and efficient consumers innovation infrastructure Providing basic and comparative energy consumption data by mail has been proven to drive consumer energy savings of 4 to 15% 6

7 Defining the Smart Grid Sector A modernized, efficient electric network that includes two way communication systems and enables the integration of technologies that will further improve the efficiency, reliability, and security of the electric grid. The smart grid sector includes electric utility industry products and services required for the modernization of distribution and transmission systems and information and communication technologies and services that support a fully networked grid and enable two way communications and electric flows. 7

8 Smart Grid Products and Services Utility investment in smart grid = Grid Modernization + Integrated Information & Communication Technology Transmission & Distribution Infrastructure Meters Distribution Eqp. Transformers Converters Switching Gear Ctrl Instruments Advanced Control Systems Substation Automation Distribution Management Advanced Sensors Wide Area Management Advanced Outage Mgmt Generation and Storage Distributed Generation Energy Storage Tech Microgrids Advanced Metering Infrastructure Smart Meters Phasor Measurement Units Demand Response Local Area Network Meter Data Mgmt Consumer Interface Energy Mgmt Platforms Home Area Networking Intelligent Controls (Smart Thermostats) Hardware and Devices End Use Smart Appliances Intelligent Building Systems Electric Vehicles Local Storage Tech 8

9 Key Drivers For Smart Grid Investments Advanced and Emerging Economies will Lead the Development of the Smart Grid Primary Drivers Electricity Demand Economic Development Integration of New Energy Sources Energy Efficiency Objectives Grid Stability Objectives Standards Development Common Policy Decisions Government Investment Direct Support for Utilities Public/Private Demonstration Projects Regulatory Structure Incentives for Utility Investment in Smart Grid Incentives for Renewables Energy Efficiency Targets Energy Reserve Requirements Incentives to Interconnect Access to financing 9

10 What it means for global trade & investment Total Investment Required for World Energy Infrastructure, 2001 to 2030 = $16 Trillion Coal 2% Oil 19% Gas 19% Electric 60% Trans & Dist = $5.18 Trillion (54%) Generation = $4.42 Trillion (46%) Source: International Atomic Energy Agency 10
