Why Multilateral Cooperation on Smart Grids
Top 6
Motivating Drivers
for Smart Grids from ISGAN analysis of
22 national-level survey results
Diverse Systems, Common Drivers: • Electricity grids differ greatly from country to country, market to market,
in technical characteristics, market structures, and governance.
• Yet, countries are asking the same questions about grid modernization
and drawing from similar pools of technologies, policies & standards.
• Multilateral cooperation increases the likelihood of brokering meaningful
connections across the specific areas of synergy.

Smart Grid International Research Facility Network
Test Protocols for Advanced Inverter Functions • Goal: Develop / demonstrate consensus-based interoperability
test protocols for IEC 61850-90-7 advanced distributed energy
resources (DERs)
• “Round robin” evaluation of test protocols among facilities
• Meant to inform/accelerate adoption of the protocols
by international standards organizations / grid code bodies
Internal webinar available
Smart Grid Modeling • Emphasis on model-centric approach, based on duplication of
the physical grid in a computer model used for all analysis,
containing all device details and geospatially referenced
• Using Graph Trace analysis, model solved within a SCADA scan
using time-series data, such as AMI, while also integrating
measurements and other important data sets
• Collaboration for joint algorithm development / analysis;
training on use and programming of model
Internal webinar available

Overview: Technical Projects
Power Systems Testing • Numerous interdependencies in
power system control
• Testing components only may miss
such interactions/interdependencies
• Seeks to define requirements for
true systems testing, applying
state-of-the-art adv. lab testing methods
Advanced Laboratory Testing Methods
• Utilize novel ideas and novel methods (PHIL, CHIL, MD/Co-Sim)
• Creation of a work basis for future contributions to
o Rapid prototyping and manufacturing
o Standardized testing procedures (writing, testing)
o Novel research areas in the electrical domain
Smart Grid International Research Facility Network
• Success: Labs are rallying around the SIRFN-supported standardized
method for verifying advanced distributed energy resources!
• SIRFN is developing test procedures and a common testing environment by:
– Coordinating the experimental testing of DER devices in the U.S., Europe, and Asia
– Building test-beds for advanced interoperability DER testing
(including electrical performance and communications certification tests)
– Comparing results from advanced DER function experiments
– Improving the draft test protocols for adoption by code-making bodies

Success: Smart Grid Modelling training with CPRI
• BNL and EDD worked with India’s Central Power Research Institute (CPRI)
to train staff and students in the Model-Centric Approach and Academic
Distributed Energy Workstation (ADEW) software in 2014-15 via webinars.
o About 9 students and staff were trained over the period.
o After training, students were able to develop their own algorithms
o Good feedback about the learning experience and expressed interest to
continue the training
Success: First ISGAN/SIRFN Grid Modelling Workshop
• Held at BNL in April 2016.
40+ grid modelers and practitioners
on “Tools for a Smarter Grid,”
included representatives from
South Africa, Korea, The Netherlands,
Austria, and Romania plus several
U.S. national labs

Equipment and Appliance Efficiency
• Clean Energy Solutions Center has responded to more than 180 requests
for policy assistance from nearly 90 countries through its Ask-An Expert
service. For example, assistance included helping the Caribbean member states
(CARICOM) draft aggressive regional and national sustainable energy targets of
20 percent in 2017, 28 percent in 2022, and 47 percent in 2027.
DELIVERING RESULTS
Clean Energy Solutions Center
• India became the first country in the world to comprehensively set quality and
performance standards for LEDs. The standards, informed through peer
exchanges facilitated by SEAD, could save as much as 277 terawatt hours of
electricity (TWh) and avoid 254 million metric tons of CO2 emissions
cumulatively between 2015 –2030, the equivalent of avoiding 90 coal fired
power plants.
DELIVERING RESULTS
Electric Vehicles Initiative
• The Electric Vehicle Initiative (EVI) provides
authoritative information on global EV sales and EV
deployment policy. It also provides technical
assistance to support the formation of EV policies.
For example, EVI research has informed India’s
National Mission on Electric Mobility, which targets
deployment of 5 to 7 million EVs by 2020. By
analyzing the real-world costs, benefits, and
environmental impacts of vehicle electrification in
Indian cities, EVI researchers helped establish
India’s incentive programs that could save
4.8 billion barrels of oil and 270 million tons
of CO2 emissions by 2030.
