The Energy Smart Communities Initiative (ESCI) was Launched in November 2010 by U.S. President Obama and Japan’s Prime Minister Kan
The ESCI is meant to help realized APEC Leaders’ goal to reduce the energy intensity of their economies by 45% by 2035The ESCI contains two crosscutting elements and four pillars

Instructions from Energy Ministers at EMM-9The Fukui Declaration from the Ninth Energy Ministers Meeting (EMM-9), June 2010, states that: “smart grid technologies, including advanced battery technologies for highly-efficient and cost-effective energy storage, can help to integrate intermittent renewable power sources and building control systems that let businesses and consumers use energy more efficiently, and they can also help to enhance the reliability of electricity supply, extend the useful life of power system components, and reduce system operating costs.”
EMM-9 instructed the Energy Working Group (EWG): “to start an APEC Smart Grid Initiative (ASGI) to evaluate the potential of smart grids to support the integration of intermittent renewable energies and energy management approaches in buildings and industry.”

Elements of the Smart Grid Initiative
Element 1 – Survey of Smart Grid Status and Potential Element 2 – Smart Grid Roadmap Element 3 – Smart Grid Test BedsElement 4 – Development of Smart Grid Interoperability Standards
The Smart Grid Initiative is being led by the U.S, Korea, and Chinese Taipei
7
Element 1 – Survey of Smart Grid Status and Potential
A recently completed report “Using Smart Grids to Enhance Use of Energy-Efficiency and Renewable- Energy Technologies” (EWG 01/2009S), evaluated the potential of smart grid technologies in APEC economies to enhance the use of renewable energy and energy efficient buildings, appliances and equipment
A related project, “Addressing Grid-interconnection Issues to Maximize the Utilization of New and Renewable Energy Resources” (EWG 02/2009) was led by Japan and completed in late 2010

Element 2 – Smart Grid Roadmap
Organize workshops to elaborate a roadmap for advancing smart grid technologies in APECDue to the wide range of electric grids in place, APEC members can work together to learn from others and develop suggested procedures that will be useful in developing economy specific road mapsThe roadmap process would be developed in coordination with the International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN)The roadmap process also supports the APEC Leaders endorsed Energy Smart Communities Initiative
9
Three projects related to different aspects of road mapping were implemented in 2011
“Addressing Challenges of Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Deployment in APEC” was implemented August 24-25, 2011 by Chinese Taipei alongside the Expert Group on New and Renewable Energy Technologies meeting (EGNRET-37)“APEC Workshop on Energy and Green Transport Benefits of Electric Vehicles” was implemented jointly China and Hong Kong, China on October 24-25, 2011Workshop on “Smart Appliance’ Standards for Air Conditioners and other Appliances” implemented November 10-11, 2011 by Australia alongside the Expert Group on Energy Efficiency & Conservation meeting (EGEE&C-38)
10
Element 3 – Smart Grid Test Beds
Establish a network of test beds to provide operational data on emerging smart grid technologiesEconomies may also wish to offer smart grid test beds for use by grid operators, electric power suppliers, and manufacturers of energy efficient building systems and equipmentAPEC test beds would become part of a Smart Grid International Research Facility Network (SIRFN) to be coordinated by the International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN)U.S. sponsored APEC-ISGAN Smart Grid Test Bed Network Workshop January 24-25, 2012 in Washington, DC
11
Smart Grid Test Beds Activities: Jeju Island in Korea
• Begin in 2009 with the goal of becoming the worlds largest smart grid community that allows the testing of advanced technologies
• Expected investment of US$ 50 million public funds matched by US$150 million private investment from 2009-2013
12
Smart Grid Test Beds Activities: Distributed Energies Technology Laboratory (DETL) at Sandia National LaboratoriesReconfigurable infrastructure simulates a variety of real-world scenarios and scaled portions of utility feeders and the transmission infrastructure
• Electric Grid Integration of Renewable Energy Sources• Advance Power Electronics• Interoperability, Communications & Security• Solar Technology & Grid-Related Standards & Codes
13
Cornerstone facility for DOE program on Solar Energy Grid Integration Systems (SEGIS)
Tests & evaluates new power conversion and energy management technologies
Element 4 – Smart Grid Interoperability Standards
Discuss interoperability standards for Smart Grid technologies under the APEC Regulatory Cooperation Advancement Mechanism on Trade-Related Standards and Technical Regulations (ARCAM) in 2011
Based on the discussions, consider follow-up steps to develop interoperability standards across the APEC region and globally through ISGAN
14
ARCAM Interoperability Project- 2012
Workshop on Regulatory Approaches to Smart Grid Investment/Deployment
Project led by the U.S. under the Committee on Trade and Investment/Subcommittee on Standards and Conformance (CTI/SCSC)Associated with the World Forum on Energy Regulators
Quebec City, Canada, May 16-17, 2012Participants included central and sub-central regulatory authorities, and officials from ministries responsible for technology, trade, and import policy as well as private sector representativesWorkshop included panels on Interoperability Standards and the Role of Energy Regulators and International Standards Development
15
Seven New Smart Grid Projects are being Implementation in 20121. “Stock-take of electric vehicle interface with electricity
and smart grids across APEC economies and the potential for harmonization” implemented by New Zealand.
2. “Promotion of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy in Low Carbon Model Town of APEC through Distributed Energy Source – Identification of Potential, Challenges and Solutions” implemented by China
3. “Piloting Smart / Micro Grid Projects for Insular and Remote Localities in APEC Economies” implemented by Russia
16

GridLAB-D: Simulating the Smart Grid Technologies and Benefits
Why stimulate the smart grid?• Evaluate the potential of new technologies & operational strategies to
save capital costs, improve reliability, & provide benefits like ancillary services
• Craft and refine the characteristics of technologies and operational strategies to provide maximum benefit at the lowest cost
• Understand and quantify the synergies among smart grid technologies• Avoid unintended consequences from utilizing distributed control
strategies• Predict, evaluate, & extrapolate deployment project results
What is GridLAB-D?• time-series, life-cycle simulation for smart grid
operations & capacity expansion• demand response, distributed generation/storage,
automatic sectionalizing & restoration• simultaneous solution of net loads & power flow• prototypical feeders with U.S. weighting factors• open source, modular environment for
collaboration, module contributions can be used to develop commercial products
• commercial modules can be linked, but kept private
