Consumers Energy's Innovation Center in downtown Jackson, Michigan, provides a hub for employees to share ideas and help develop new technologies that will serve customers of Michigan's largest energy provider.
Consumers Energy has upgraded meter technology for residential customers and small businesses from electromechanical meters (left) to digital meters (middle) over the past 10 years, as the older meters have required replacement. Smart meters (right) have upgraded functions and will be installed across the state through 2017.
Consumers Energy's Innovation Center celebrated its grand opening on April 15, 2016. The Jackson center serves as an incubator for new strategies for Consumers Energy and for new startup businesses in Michigan.

Digitalisierung ist viel mehr als Cybersicherheit, Hard- und Software. In der politischen Diskussion sollte verstanden sein: Es braucht vor allem klare Rollen und geeignete Regeln als Grundlage einer sinnvollen Digitalisierung.
Am Beispiel der Energiewirtschaft diskutierten wir im Rahmen der BASECAMP Themenwoche, welche Bedeutung Schnittstellen zwischen Netzebenen, Energiearten und Sektoren sowie Definitionen haben, gerade auch wenn sie fehlen.
Partner: STEAG GmbH

Dr. Amin has a vision for the future of energy infrastructure in North America – smarter, sustainable, more resilient and secure. We’ve learned a great deal in the last 15 years about complex “lifeline” infrastructures – not just powerlines, but anything that absolutely, positively needs to survive failure.
From the PopTech Blog:
Amin’s work went on to studying intelligent transport and highway systems. This work was moved dramatically forwards by EPRI – the Electric Power Research Institute – which involved 240 graduate students and 108 professors who jointly studied complex interactive networks. The goal was to build networks that were secure, robust and self-healing.
“The mother of smart grids is the self-healing grid.” These systems have a normal, undisturbed state, an alert model that senses precursors to an emergency state, and then attempts to restore from these aggravated states to the normal ones. The key is to build systems that are simple and smart, that focus on security, reliability, robustness, efficiency, and security. Security became even more important in the wake of 9/11, when the focus became on dynamic risk assessment, analyzing threats to these infrastructures.

Microchip partnered with Kalki Technologies to provide a Device Language Message Specification (DLMS) protocol stack that is optimized for 16-bit PIC® microcontrollers (MCUs). The DLMS protocol has become the worldwide standard of choice among smart meter designers for interoperability among metering systems, including most energy types (electricity, gas, heat and water), multiple applications (residential, transmission and distribution), and numerous communication media (RS232, RS485, PSTN, GSM, GPRS, IPv4, PPP and PLC); as well as secure data access, via AES 128 encryption.

Microchip Technology partnered with Cymbet Corporation to provide the world’s first customizable energy harvesting application development kit—the XLP 16-bit Energy Harvesting Development Kit. This kit includes a modular development board populated with the PIC24F16KA102 microcontroller—featuring eXtreme Low Power—and the capability to add PICtail™ daughter boards for the rapid evaluation of a wide variety of system functions, including ZigBee® and proprietary wireless connectivity, and SD memory cards. The PIC® microcontroller’s eXtreme Low Power technology allows users to gain the longest possible operation from the included Cymbet EnerChip™ EH Eval-08 Energy Harvesting Board, which harvests solar energy that is then stored in the EnerChip solid-state, rechargeable energy-storage devices.

‘PowerMatching City’ in Groningen is een de smart grid proeftuin die is bedoeld om een slim energiesysteem te testen waarin vraag naar en aanbod van energie op elkaar worden afgestemd. In de eerste fase van de proeftuin is gebleken dat het technisch mogelijk is om vraag en aanbod van energie op elkaar af te stemmen. In de tweede fase is getest onder welke omstandigheden huishoudens bereid zijn om hun vraag naar energie te verschuiven.
Microchip Technology's Digital LED Lighting Development Kit is a reference design with complete documentation, including software and Gerber files, which can be downloaded for free today from www.microchip.com/LED. It enables designers to quickly leverage the capabilities and performance of the dsPIC33 ‘GS’ series of Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs), to develop LED lighting products.

Het is een bekend fenomeen: files op het Nederlandse wegennet. Minder bekend is dat er zich in Nederland ook files op het elektriciteitsnet kunnen voordoen. In de proeftuin EnergieKoplopers in Heerhugowaard wordt met tweehonderd huishoudens getest of zij energiefiles kunnen helpen voorkomen en zo geld kunnen verdienen door flexibel met energie om te gaan.

The 40th Annual Lighting of Baltimore’s Washington Monument took place on Thursday, December 1st. The BGE Smart Energy Savers Program® is a proud sponsor of the 2011 Baltimore Monument Lighting, once again providing this year’s energy-efficient holiday lights to help Baltimore save energy and money.
De toename van duurzame energie vraagt om een slimme energiemarkt, waar klanten hun energieverbruik kunnen afstemmen op het aanbod van energie uit bijvoorbeeld wind of zon. Zeven Nederlandse spelers op de energiemarkt, waaronder Essent, hebben daarom het Universal Smart Energy Framework (USEF) gelanceerd. Met een internationale marktstandaard maakt USEF flexibiliteit in energiegebruik verhandelbaar. USEF beschrijft onder meer de structuur en mechanismen van de flexibiliteitsmarkt, de marktrollen en de interactie tussen die rollen.
