Abstract:

The Pacific Northwest Smart Grid Demonstration is one of 16 regional projects funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The project is led by Battelle in Richland, WA, and includes participation by University of Washington, 10 utilities across the five state region of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, and five technology providers including IBM Research, IBM Netezza, Alstom Grid, 3TIER and QualityLogic. The five main objectives of the project are to invest in regional smart grid infrastructure, quantify costs and benefits of smart grid technology, develop a wide area communications protocol, contribute to smart grid standards and to facilitate the integration of wind and other renewable energy resources through a smart grid application called transactive control. The Project Director, Dr. Ron Melton, will present an overview of the project with emphasis on transactive control of assets throughout the electric power system.

About the TCIPG Seminar Series:

The seminar series is presented by the Trustworthy Cyber Infrastructure for the Power Grid (TCIPG) Project, an $18 million multi-university research effort whose partner institutions include the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Arizona State University, Dartmouth, and Washington State University. The TCIPG Project, a successor to the earlier NSF-funded TCIP Center, was founded in 2009 with support from the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. It is housed in the Information Trust Institute, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
