1 IEA IMPLEMENTING AGREEMENT FOR A CO-OPERATIVE PROGRAMME ON SMART GRIDS (ISGAN) SMART GRID DRIVERS AND TECHNOLOGIES BY COUNTRY, ECONOMIES, AND CONTINENT ISGAN Framework of Assessment Report ANNEX 1, Task 1 W-T. Paul Wang, Energy & Environmental Resources Group (USA) 1 October 2012 Verification: Korea Smart Grid Institute (Operating Agent) Approval: ISGAN Executive Committee Chair or Vice Chair From the ISGAN Annex 1 Programme of Work, Issue 3.0, revised February 2012: Summary report and analysis of the survey results, detailing the clustered driver/technology pairs of common interest and importance to Participants
2 ABSTRACT This report summarizes development of the ISGAN framework of assessment culminating with identification of prioritized assessment results of smart grid motivating drivers and technologies at both the national level and multinational level. Development began with defining motivating drivers and technology priorities and then embodying them in a unified assessment framework; this was followed by developing an online survey tool for use by each Participant to complete its assessment. Each Participant s survey results were then subjected to validation by that country s national coordinator for Annex 1. A clustering analysis methodology was developed and applied to derive the composite, national-level prioritized assessment results from validated survey results submitted by multiple respondents for a country. The same methodology was further applied to groups of multiple Participants validated, prioritized assessment results to identify motivating drivers and technology priorities at each group or multinational level. Clustering analyses for groups of all ISGAN Participants, as well as of Participants by economies (developed and developing) and by continent (Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America), were conducted; these multinational-level prioritized assessment results are provided herein. Lastly, application of national-level and multinational-level prioritized assessment results for selecting each country s smart grid projects for the ISGAN project inventory and for further quantitative analysis is described.

4 1.0 INTRODUCTION The International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN), launched at the first Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) in July 2010, creates a mechanism for multilateral collaboration to accelerate world-wide development and deployment of smarter electricity grids. ISGAN has launched key projects (known as Annexes) across its five principal areas of focus (Policies, Standards, and Regulation; Finance and Business Models; Technology and Systems Development; User and Consumer Engagement; and Workforce Skills and Knowledge). The Global Smart Grid Inventory project, that is, Annex 1, has the objectives of identifying countries specific motivating drivers for pursuing smart grids, cataloguing the wide range of smart grid activities underway, and collecting and organizing the wealth of experience currently being generated into a resource available first to ISGAN Participants and then to a broader, global audience. These objectives and the associated scope of activities are described in the ISGAN Annex 1 Programme of Work, Issue 3.0 (revised February 2012). This paper summarizes work completed for Task 1, Framework for Assessment, under the Annex 1 Programme of Work. The objective of Task 1 was to define the motivating drivers for smart grids and analyze the associated, contributing smart grid technologies. The Task involved developing a unified ISGAN framework for assessing and prioritizing national-level smart grid motivating drivers and contributing smart grid technologies. It is expected that all ISGAN Participants will contribute data and information to this Annex. As of this report publication, 22 nations across the globe have signed on as ISGAN Participants. This paper documents, in the following sections, the Annex 1 unified framework for assessment, prioritized assessment results by each Participant, purpose and methodology for multinational (or clustering) analysis, and analysis results of common motivating drivers and driver-technology pairs of high priority to nations clustered by economies or by continent. 2.0 FRAMEWORK FOR ASSESSMENT A unified framework for assessing smart grid motivating drivers and contributing technologies was developed and agreed on for use by each Participant. For the context of this Annex, the motivating drivers are defined as the driving forces for goal-oriented actions (encompassing planning, strategy development or strategic directions, and implementation) in the next three years; the smart grid technologies are defined here as those being developed or deployed today to support the driver. A template of the motivating drivers and the matrix of smart grid technologies versus drivers was first developed in Microsoft Excel. This draft version was then revised to incorporate input from some Participants, namely: Belgium, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Sweden, and Page 1 1 October 2012
5 Switzerland. The Excel version of the template was finalized on February 22, 2012, with incorporation of Participant input. A user interface was then developed for a web-based tool, which employs an online service by SurveyGizmo to transform the final Excel version of the template into a survey form with features such as survey login, question and page piping, checkboxes, rating/likert scale, flexibility in adding a user-specified driver or technology, and sending with survey results. The web-based tool development culminated with a demonstration of its use at a meeting with seven Annex 1 Participants and the IEA in Brussels on February 24, 2012, in conjunction with the InnoGrid2020+ Seminar. The web-based tool was launched on March 1, 2012; instructions on using the tool were sent to each Participant with a request to log on to the ISGAN Framework Survey site for survey completion. If more than one survey completion was desired (given varying priority from diversity in geography, stakeholders, etc.), each nation had the option of completing up to five surveys. An instant survey report was then generated in PDF and sent via to the survey respondent for review, with an link to return to each online survey entry for any changes. 3.0 PRIORITIZED ASSESSMENT RESULTS BY EACH PARTICIPANT The country representative on the Executive Committee was requested to serve as the primary coordinator of the online survey completion for each ISGAN Participant. The primary coordinator was responsible to ensure that the survey results reflect the priority of that country s motivating drivers and contributing technologies. The prioritized assessment results by each Participant have since been collected through the completed responses via the survey website described above. Survey completion has been requested from each ISGAN Participant; as a new nation joins ISGAN, a survey completion request will be made. Thus, the Annex 1 survey results will continue to evolve, with addition of new Participant results and incorporation of ongoing changes made to the completed surveys to reflect the most recent motivating drivers and contributing technologies of all Participants. All completed survey results of an ISGAN Participant were subject to validation by the country s primary coordinator for acceptance as the prioritized assessment results for that nation. A validation form, along with all survey completion results, was sent to the primary coordinator; only those survey results marked with approval by the primary coordinator on the validation form were deemed validated and accepted as the prioritized assessment results.

6 Table 1 lists the status of survey completion and validation by ISGAN Participants. Twenty-one of 22 ISGAN Participants have completed their surveys; seven have submitted multiple surveys. Those with multiple surveys completed, validated, or rejected have their numbers shown in parentheses following that country s name in Table 1. Only the 27 validated survey results from 19 nations, highlighted in Table 1, are subject to clustering analyses at the national level and multinational level, as described below. Table 1. Status of Survey Completion and Validation by ISGAN Participants, as of 5 September 2012 Status of Survey Completion and Validation ISGAN Participants 35 Completed surveys, from 21 nations Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Finland (2), France (2), India, Ireland, Italy, Japan (4), Republic of Korea (2), Mexico (2), The Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Spain, Sweden (4), Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States (5) 27 Completed and validated surveys, from 19 nations Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Finland, France (2), India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, The Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Sweden (4), Switzerland, United States (5) 3 Completed but not validated surveys Republic of Korea, Norway, United Kingdom 5 Surveys rejected by countries primary coordinators Finland, Japan (3), Mexico Survey not yet submitted Germany 4.0 METHODOLOGY FOR CLUSTERING ANALYSIS AT NATIONAL LEVEL AND MULTINATIONAL LEVEL For an ISGAN Participant with multiple, validated surveys shown in Table 1, a method was applied to combine (or cluster) those into a single composite survey to represent that nation s prioritized assessment results. This composite survey was then included in the subsequent clustering analysis to derive multinational-level prioritized assessment results. Doing so allows each Participant s prioritized assessment results to be treated equally in multinational analysis, regardless of how many surveys were submitted by that Participant. The same methodology was used for clustering analysis to derive both national-level prioritized assessment results (by combining multiple surveys from a single Participant) and multinationallevel prioritized assessment results (by combining prioritized results of each Participant in a Page 3 1 October 2012
7 group). The methodology applied a simple weighting scheme to the motivating drivers and contributing technologies. The scheme involved assigning a point score for each driver; that is, a score of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 for the top-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, and -6 ranked drivers, respectively. Similarly, the same point scoring system was applied to the top-priority technologies selected for a top-ranked driver; that is, a score of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 was applied to the top-1, -2, -3, -4, and -5 ranked technologies, respectively, for that driver. For clustering analysis, the top-6 priority drivers for a particular grouping (either of multiple surveys from a single Participant or of multiple countries assessment results) were identified through computing the sum of all scoring points received for each of the drivers and then ranking them according to their overall scores. Similarly, the top-5 technologies for each of the top-6 drivers from a particular clustering analysis were derived by computing and ranking the overall scores received for the technologies. To automate the clustering analyses, functions of computing, ranking, and sorting scores for drivers and driver-technology pairs were coded in Microsoft Excel macros, along with the weighting scheme. In addition, each Participant was coded with either developed or developing economies (according to the International Monetary Fund's World Economic Outlook Report, April 2012), as well as with a continent (Asia, Australia, Europe, or North America). The Excel macros facilitate generation of prioritized assessment results at both national and multinational levels. 5.0 NATIONAL-LEVEL PRIORITIZED ASSESSMENT RESULTS The prioritized assessment results of each Participant with validated survey(s) are provided in the Appendix. For Participants with one validated survey, that survey represents the country s prioritized assessment results. The composite survey for France, Sweden, and the United States, from respective clustering analysis of multiple surveys from each, is shown in the Appendix to represent each country s prioritized assessment results.

9 6.1 Multinational Analysis Results of All Participants with Validated Results Nineteen Participants, shown in Figure 1 under the column All, have their prioritized assessment results validated. Clustering analysis of the results for these 19 Participants is shown in Figures 2 and 3 for the top-6 ranked drivers and the top-5 ranked technologies for each top-ranked driver, respectively. The x-axis scale in Figure 2 reflects the score of drivers from the clustering analysis. Figure 2.

11 Six groups of technologies are shown in Figure 3, and each group consists of the top-5 technologies ranked to support a driver (shown in the label) with technology scores in y-axis and technology names in x-axis. Thus, Figure 3 depicts the prioritized driver-technology pairs from the clustering analysis of the 19 national-level results. A further analysis was made to identify technology priorities across all drivers. This involved a three-step process. The first step was to multiply the sum of scores calculated from the clustering analysis for each technology by a driver-weighted factor. This was followed by adding all multiplied (or weighted) scores of a technology across all drivers to derive the total score for that technology. The final step was to rank the total scores of all technologies to come up with the technology priorities across all drivers. The driver-weighted factors of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 were used to multiply the sum of scores of a technology associated with the top-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, and -6 ranked driver. For example, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) was shown in Figure 3 to be in the top-5 technologies for five of the top-6 drivers. It has a score of 35, 17, 26, 26, and 13 associated with the top-2, -3, -4, -5, and -6 ranked drivers. The total of driver-weighted scores for AMI was calculated to be 386 (i.e., 35*5+17*4+26*3+26*2+13*1). Since the score of 386 was the highest among all scores for all technologies, AMI is shown as the top technology priority in Figure 4 across all drivers. The four technologies with the next highest overall driver-weighted scores are also shown in Figure 4. Figure 4.

12 6.2 Multinational-Level Analysis Results by Economies The top motivating drivers and the top technologies across all drivers for developed and developing economies from clustering analyses of multinational results are shown in Figures 5 and 6, respectively. The left charts in both Figures show clustering analyses of the 15 developed economies national-level results, and the right charts show clustering analyses of the 4 developing economies national-level results. The identity of Participants in each grouping of economies is shown in Figure 1. Figure 5.

Except for these three, other priority drivers differ between developed and developing economies. Specifically, other priority drivers for the developed economies include: Enabling customer choice and participation; Enabling new products, services, and markets; and Energy efficiency improvements. For developing economies, other priority drivers include: Reducing operating and maintenance costs; Optimizing asset utilization; and Revenue collection and assurance improvements. The Page 9 1 October 2012
13 clustering analyses appear to indicate that beyond the three common drivers of priority, the drivers for developing economies focus more on improving aspects of current operations (that is, O&M costs, asset utilization, and revenue collection), while the drivers for developed economies have an added emphasis on enabling characteristics of a smart grid (that is, customer choice and participation, new products/services/markets, and energy efficiency improvements). AMI is the common priority technology to both developed and developing economies across all drivers. This and other priority technologies for the developed economies shown in Figure 6, including Demand response, Distributed energy resources integration, Residential consumer energy management, and Large size variable renewable energy sources integration, support the emphasis of drivers on enabling characteristics of a smart grid mentioned above. All technology priorities for developing economies shown in Figure 6 support improving power quality/reliability and system/cost efficiencies of current transmission and distribution grid operations. 6.3 Multinational-Level Analysis Results by Continent Clustering analyses of multinational results show the top motivating drivers (Figure 7) and the top technologies across all drivers (Figure 8) for each of the four continents. The number of Participants in each continent is indicated as follows in parentheses: Asia (4); Australia (1); Europe (11); and North America (3). The identity of Participants in each continent is shown in Figure 1. Common motivating drivers and technologies identified as being of priority to at least two of the four continents are presented in Table 2. Page 10 1 October 2012

Regarding technology priorities, AMI is common to all four continents, and Demand response is common to three of the four continents. 7.0 NEXT STEP: APPLICATION OF NATIONAL-LEVEL AND MULTINATIONAL-LEVEL PRIORITIZED ASSESSMENT RESULTS National-level prioritized assessment results are being used as one of the selection criteria for projects to be included in the Annex 1 project inventory (under Task 2 in the Annex 1 Programme of Work). The other selection criteria, as concurred on by Annex 1 Participants, include: demonstration and/or deployment project; government- or regulator-supported project; project scope addressing the ISGAN principal areas of focus; and near-term project duration. Projects included in the inventory will be subject to qualitative analysis by ISGAN Participants. Multinational-level motivating drivers and technology priorities are to be used to further down select projects from those in the project inventory selected by each Participant to meet that country s prioritized assessment results and other criteria above. The down-selected projects will be subject to further quantitative analysis by applying key performance indicators to track project progress (under Task 3 in the Annex 1 Programme of Work). Thus, national- Page 12 1 October 2012
