National Town Meeting – Demand Response and Smart Grid

Hank Kenchington - Deputy Assistant Secretary Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability U.S. Department of Energy

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) jump starts Smart Grid

2 DOE Funding for Smart Grid Activities $2M FY08 $5M FY09

$4.5 Billion Smart Grid ARRA Funds

NOTE: not to scale

NIST is coordinating Smart Gird interoperability

Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 Title XIII, Section 1305. Smart Grid Interoperability Framework

In cooperation with the DoE, NEMA, IEEE, GWAC, and other stakeholders,

NIST

has “primary responsibility to

coordinate development of a framework

that includes protocols and model standards for information management

to achieve interoperability of smart grid devices and systems

…”

Cybersecurity is a national priority

“ .. as the United States deploys new Smart Grid technology, the Federal government must ensure that security standards are developed and adopted to avoid creating unexpected opportunities for adversaries to penetrate these systems or conduct large scale attacks.”

Smart Grid Requirements Could Introduce Risk

• Real-time, two-way communications • Use of more open, interoperable architecture designs • Increased reliance on automation and control • Exponentially more access points • Physical access to smart meters • Interconnected nature of grid Potential for new cyber vulnerabilities

Build-in cyber security from the GET GO!

Cyber security must be embedded…..or $$$$

“Several challenges must be addressed in order to effectively secure control systems. These include: the

limitations of current security technologies in securing control

systems
