  3. Lab Typical Utility R&D Focus DOE Focus DOE Focus Technology Development Timeline Full-Scale PostCommercial Pilot Technology Maturity Time

  4. Increased Capacity Higher voltage operation, but without requiring insulation upgrades Without expanding existing rights-of-ways Large Scale Energy Storage Systems Stability enhancement, response and other voltage support apps Communications & Sensing Ubiquitous coverage and reporting required for “real time dynamic limits” of system Routing and Control High speed circuit breakers and fault current limiters Stability and Reliability Validated/Improved Wide Area Load Models to enhance planning Distribution System Simulator and Operator Trainer Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  5. Questions?

  6. Increased Capacity Higher voltage operation, but without requiring insulation upgrades Without expanding existing rights-of-ways For underground transmission applications Lightweight / High Capacity conductors Energy Storage for use within / around constrained areas Real time monitoring for dynamic loading and operation at optimal levels Improved power electronics Validated / Improved Load Models from a Wide Area perspective to enhance system planning Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  7. Large Scale Energy Storage Systems Stability enhancement and response systems and other voltage support apps Needed for numerous “visionary” T&D applications Required for effective asset utilization Networked applications Substation Battery replacement/enhancement Requires advanced power electronics for conversion Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  8. Communications and Sensing Ubiquitous coverage and reporting required for “real time dynamic limits” of system Low cost, secure & reliable communications and monitoring required for all advanced applications Security, availability and reliability of the communications network critical High value visualization technologies MUST have “information” from the power system - communications is the cornerstone Wireless communications in and around substation equipment Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  9. Routing and Control High speed circuit breakers and Fault current limiters Low cost, secure & reliable communications and monitoring required Ubiquitous coverage for “real time dynamic limits” of system Requires high value visualization technologies, which requires communications and monitoring systems Distribution System Simulator and Operator Trainer Energy storage systems Power Electronics Low Cost FACTS devices Validated/Improved Load Models from a Wide Area perspective to enhance system planning Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  10. Stability and Reliability Validated/Improved Load Models from a Wide Area perspective to enhance system planning Distribution System Simulator and Operator Trainer Fast and reliable communications and monitoring required Ubiquitous coverage and reporting Energy storage systems Power Electronics Low Cost FACTS devices High speed circuit breakers and Fault current limiters Low Cost Sensors for Fault Locating, Isolation and Restoration Southern’s Power Delivery Technology Needs

  11. DOE is already very involved and viewed as a valued partner in the area of Power Delivery R&D. Significant R&D efforts are underway Plan should leverage and compliment Need expanded involvement in improving our track record in full-scale, long term, high impact R&D DOE participation needed throughout the technology development and demonstration process Key Takeaways

  12. Success of 2030 Roadmap hinges on collaboration Biggest need is demonstration of useable commercial technology Technical needs cannot be solved by policy, codes, standards, or mandates Rural facility upgrades are required to meet the DOE 2030 vision Key Takeaways
