Smart Energy Challenges and
Opportunities

6. • Power needs are
Why Everyday growing
People Need Us To – By 2030, more than 60% of
the global population will
Move Forward live in cities
• Power must remain
affordable
– Double-digit price increases
are already common around
the world
• Sustainability must be
achieved
– More than 40% of current
emissions are from electric
generation

7. • Aging infrastructures
Why the Energy – More than 50% of installed
transformers are reaching the
Industry Needs Us end of their design life
To Move Forward • Growing competition
for resources
– Per capita electricity use will
soar globally
• Prosperity vs
sustainability
– Competitiveness will be
determined by our ability to
grow in a prosperous yet
sustainable manner

11. What does it mean for a DNO IT Organisation
• There has to be a greater convergence of:
– The Network Assets
– Business Systems
– SCADA
• There has to be a greater convergence of:
– IT
– The Business
• An exponential increase in the volumes of data held
• Need to allow for the purchase of Smart Meter data
• Increased volumes of communications
• Increased need for system integration
• Greater investment in IT infrastructure and “smart” systems

Assumption: 3500kWh annual consumption average. At an average electric energy consumption of 5-15 kWh/100km and at an average
annual driving distance of 10 000 – 20 000 km there will be an additional electric energy consumption of 500 – 3000 kWh per electric vehicle
(charged to the household; possibly partially consumed at another point in the electric vehicle charging infrastructure, e.g. office or supermarket.)

23. Smart City Challenges
As Economic crisis continues and Environmental awareness grows, City challenges
appear at 3 levels : quality of life, managing constraints & financing
1) How can City maintain long term quality of life by controlling capex and opex?
2) How can City positively manage the increasing and tougher constraints?
3) How can City secure and manage cost of project financing associated with population and
constraints?

24. In Conclusion
• Changes in in generation and consumption technologies
and customer behaviour are driving smart energy solutions
• GE’s Smart Grid technologies are managing increasingly
complex network environments and enabling low carbon
services
• Cities are coping with demographic changes and increasing
constraints on infrastructure
• GE energy solutions and smart appliances are helping the
transition to a low carbon economy
• Evolution needed across all existing and new stakeholder
roles in the energy value chain
• The technology exists today
