  1. C Q R Emergency Power Conference Monday, November 22, 2004 Bell Labs Network Reliability & Security Office Washington, DC Session 2: Identification of Factors Affecting How Much Back-up Power Is Required at a Remote Site IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY

  2. Session 2: Identification of Factors Affecting How Much Back-up Power Is Required at a Remote Site C Q R John Mardula, T-Mobile Steven Dworkin, BatteryCorp Dan McMenamin, VZW Don Klinger, ATT Rex Miller, Motorola Darren Colvin, US Cellular George Tong, Nextel Rick Kemper, CTIA Bob Saint, NRECA Richard Kafka, PEPCO Facilitator: John Stogoski, Sprint & NRIC Scribe: Bill Hitchcock, Sprint & NRIC IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY

  3. Session 2: Identification of Factors Affecting How Much Back-up Power Is Required at a Remote Site C Q R Key Findings Critical Customers Hospitals/Public Safety/Gov’t Facilities/Universities/Broadcast Media Linkage between customers and associated network elements Grade of Service Escalating Expectations of society Paradigm Shift (wireless/wireline) What is an acceptable level of risk? Regulatory/Zoning/Property Mgt issues Restrictions in code or lease regarding generators Access (safety concern) Floor loading Requirements differ for tech types (Wireline, wireless, VoIP) Tariffed vs. non-tariffed providers Budget $$$ Business Case (cost of equip vs. revenue loss) Cost of technology IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY

  4. Session 2: Identification of Factors Affecting How Much Back-up Power Is Required at a Remote Site C Q R Key Findings Design process for power plants Role in telco network (Importance of site) Priority classes of sites (eg Hub Site vs. end cell) Threat Assessment Interdependencies (eg wireline backhaul) Robustness of network topology Environmental factors Rural vs. urban location Location within power grid (opportunity to work with pwr provider proactively) Climate control Proximity to disaster prone areas Coordination b/n Telco, Power Company, restoration coordinators Proactive vs. reactive When/how do you build the relationships? Mechanisms for coordination (elec co call center, acct rep, fire dept, State/Local EOC, Federal agencies) Escalation process to follow justification criteria Ability of pwr company to map/DB critical sites IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY

  5. Session 2: Identification of Factors Affecting How Much Back-up Power Is Required at a Remote Site C Q R Key Findings Obstacles to response efforts Curfews / Roadblocks Permits for transport (especially for interstate transport) Confiscation of equipment Local police Telco low on priority list for power restoration IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY
