ABSTRACT CERISE-SG: Alignment of the Information Infrastructure Architecture of Utility Companies with Related Architectures: Enlarging Circles (for smart grids) The goal of this project is to create future proof and efficient information exchange between energy sector, eGovernment and geo-world. The info-infrastructure in each world is realized, and large and complex in itself; e.g. the geo-world world with ISO TC211, OGC, and INSPIRE, or the utility-world with the Common Information Model (IEC61970/61968/61850), and NORA, the Dutch Government Reference Architecture including the key register system. These worlds cannot easily be adjusted given the mass behind it. Our approach covers two levels: technical (web services, exchange formats, protocols) and content (semantics, information models). In case of model mismatches between the different worlds, semantic model transformation services are developed. The information mappings that are to be developed, will be targeted towards use cases and tested in the domain of smart grids. Knowledge dissemination is targeted towards business society, leading to developing advanced products for the international smart grids market. Project duration is from October 2012 until September 2015; partners are Alliander, TU Delft, TNO, Geonovum and Geodan. The results of the first phase will be presented: inventory of standards, use cases and societal cost-benefit analysis.

ABSTRACT The use of Geo spatial Technology in BSES Yamuna power limited, Delhi India BSES Yamuna power limited is one of the 5 Distribution utilities in the capital of India that is delhi. It caters to 1.3 miliion users spread in more than 200 sq kms of area. To understand the complexity of distribution one has to appreciate that we have more than 50 receiving substations and more than 2500 distribution substations with more than 2000 km of conductor. The peak demand last year was 1500 MW. As the name implies the GIS is using information based on geography of that area. Human brain in its thinking find it extremely easy to base its decisions on what it sees rather than complex numbers. The informed decision is much easier when it is based on location and also the communication becomes that much easier. Also the interactive nature of the maps and the facility to switch on any layer as required enhances the productivity and efficiency of the engineer working in the utility Why it is important for an Electrical distribution utility How it is used In BYPL BSES Yamuna power limited uses GIS technology for the following • Planning and Analysis • Asset management • Outage Management • Energy Audit • Network Tracing • GIS SCADA integration • GIS SAP integration • Technical feasibility • Scheme preparation • Queries and reports Smart substation and the way GIS is used as a key component BSES yamuna power limited has been always in the forefront of innovation and has developed a smart solution which it has christened as MIDAS (modular Integration Distribution automation system ) . GIS is the key component in this application and it is used in the following • As a dashboard to show which all substations are in distress • To localise the fault using GIS • To show various parameters of the asset • To inform the shortest route to the substation

ABSTRACT Kenya Electricity Generating Company Limited: Effective Delivery and Management of Assets The economic and efficient delivery of infrastructure services depends on effective planning and management. Without proper information, spatial or otherwise, the quality of service delivery, financial performance, and ability to plan can be eroded. Information from maps and records based largely on records of utilities and infrastructure facilities, contributes not only to efficient services, but also to the operation and maintenance of assets, and to the sensible planning of extensions and new works. Any serious lack of such information can adversely affect the economy, the quality of life, and the environment. However, one of the biggest costs to an organization, second only to human resources, is asset and facilities management. If these are managed well, an organization can reduce its overall business costs through more efficient maintenance, managing space more effectively, and locating and using resources in the most efficient manner. To do this effectively, it is important to understand where real property, such as offices, power stations, geothermal wells, warehouses, pipelines and related infrastructure, are located. Kenya Electricity Generating Company Limited (KenGen) KenGen is the largest power producer in Kenya having various power generating stations across the country. Using geographic information system (GIS) software to manage these vast amounts of property gives users a more accurate reflection of real-world circumstances and allows the organization to make better business decisions. This paper highlights areas where KenGen has applied GIS to manage its assets and identifies other areas where GIS may be applied in future.
ABSTRACT A spatial approach to the energy generating potential of real estate Use case: The Hague city centre Real estate is one of the most important factors in the consumption of conventional electricity, gas and heat. It also has a strong potential for the generation of renewable energy. Electricity can, for example, be generated by using solar panels on rooftops and building facades or small wind turbines can be located on tall buildings. The built environment will dramatically change. Thus, next to intrinsic value, buildings also represent a value as a carrier of energy generation. In order to optimise future energy management, consumption and potentential generation of energy have to be combined. In general the following questions arise: how can solar and other renewable energy sources be converted to power generation, how much value can be created using real estate as energy generator, who and what is needed to make it happen? This presentation is focusing on a practical example in disclosing the value and possibilities of real estate in relation to consumption and potential generation of energy by means of a spatial and GIS facilitated approach. The Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations anticipates a decreasing availability of conventional energy sources and an unstable development of energy prices. The Ministry strives to reduce energy costs, improve price stability and structural sustainability for a long-lasting, reliable and clean energy provision. This in collaboration with other public organizations. Together with the Municipality of The Hague, the Ministry has started a pilot project in The Hague. In the city centre of The Hague a large volume of governmental and municipal buildings are concentrated in a relatively small area. In this pilot the potential of renewable energy and possibilities of heat exchange are explored to define a business case for a private market tender. The Dutch Cadastre has been asked to set up an information platform to facilitate the business case definition. The Dutch Cadastre registers and administers several data that can be used to determine renewable energy potential, such as topography, building and ownership characteristics of real estate, building surface suited for placement of solar panels, energy labels and energy infrastructure. This information is enriched with external data on current energy consumption, geothermal and heat pump facilities, wind and solar potential maps. The data and maps are related to each other and disclosed in an ArcGIS Online environment giving the possibilities of interactive webmaps, web services and online sharing of this information with policymakers, civilians and private partners.
ABSTRACT Earth Observation products to support the Energy sector: Developments and trends Techno-economical and environmental challenges in the renewable energy production require the use of Earth Observation tools and services for monitoring in the design, implementation, maintenance and decommissioning phase of establishments and energy distribution lines. In conjunction with ancillary geospatial data they provide information for existing infrastructure, land cover, the biomass pulse through the vegetative period, wind fields and wave heights, and the impacts from the current energy mixes. Europe raise high expectations for data acquisition and abundance from the upcoming fleet of Sentinels, which together with the existing and upcoming TerraSAR-X, Pleiades, DMCii, JPSS missions in the US, the GCOM series in Japan, and other third party ones, are expected to cover the demand from and for most earth observation applications, among which the renewable energy-related ones. Completed and on-going projects (among others BIO_SOS, GMES4REGIONS, EnerGEO, ENDORSE, geoland2, AEGOS, SEOS), have paved the way towards Copernicus Initial Operations and Pan-European coverages’ production, been promoting capacity building, and enhancing member states’ engagement. With the last call for FP7 Space related proposals EU agencies expect to promote innovation and improve the performance of applications and services. Target is the enhancement and promotion of competitiveness of the European companies across the globe.
