Digital Primary Substation - WG 2020-4
DIGITAL PRIMARY SUBSTATION - TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM BENEFIT
Background
The Primary substation is one of the most important components of electric distribution grids and the control and automation functions implemented in these substations are vitally important to the stability of the overall system. Substations are now evolving from the traditional concept of protection and control to fully digital solutions, including station-bus and process-bus scanning, asset management tools and cybersecurity. The digitalization of substations is a decisive step toward the transformation of energy systems for the low carbon future.
Scope
The scope proposed for the working group is to identify benefits and opportunities of the digital primary substation, including:
- Ethernet based communication;
- Introduction of Process-Bus;
- Asset management support (monitoring of components, condition assessment, predictive maintenance);
- Integrated Engineering (a single master data set);
- Cybersecurity;
- Smart grid automation and protection;
- Qualit of Supply impact;
- IoT integration to foster:
o Condition Base Maintenance (CBM);
o Reactive to Proactive Operation Intelligence & Analytics
The proposed approach would include a review of existing state-of-the-art, gaps and emerging trends analysis of relevant:
- Standards;
- Technology;
- Use Cases;
- Business Cases;
- Etc
