Smart Grid, Utilities, and Internet Protocols

Google Tech Talk
April 14, 2010
ABSTRACT
Presented by Erich W. Gunther.
The smart grid is a big topic these days, but before there was a smart grid newspaper headline, the utilities have been experimenting with TCP/IP in the backend networks for a while now. Erich Gunther of enernex (www.enernex.com) will present a reference model and concept of network operations for the power industry including how Internet Protocols fit in that space. Along the way he will touch on what has worked, what hasn't and some of the security issues along the way.
Erich W. Gunther is the co-founder, chairman and chief technology officer for EnerNex Corporation - an electric power research, engineering, and consulting firm - located in Knoxville Tennessee. With 30 years of experience in the electric power industry, Erich is no stranger to smart grid - he has been involved in defining what smart grid is before the term itself was coined.

The term “radio wave sickness” was first used by Russian doctors to describe an occupational illness developed by large numbers of workers exposed to microwave or radiofrequency radiation. The symptoms were called “neurasthenic.” “Neurasthenia” was an older term for this group of symptoms, which was coined by an American physician, George Beard, in 1868, to describe a new type of illness that followed the building of the railroads and the telegraph system in this country.

is it posible to get the slides of this presentation somewhere...?
I am really interested in the overview image on 3:56. Any ideas.

[@Thatchadams]

Is there a way to dispay 1080p quality video? It is hard to see the mapping.

[@tiredfingers99]

I just want to let everyone know we had some big problems with RFL's equipment, turned out there was some really bad solder joints in there equipment. We have not replaced all our equipment with another substation communications equipment.

@Tamizushi the only reason the smart homes are connected to the grid IF THEY ARE. is to sell extra electricity..

[@captcaveman4201]

@Tamizushi its already been done.

[@Tamizushi]

@captcaveman4201 And by smart home I assume you mean well isolated with only efficient appliances, some sort of electrical generation, (either solar, wind or some form of fossil fuel) and powerful batteries. Sure it is feasible but it's also generally a lot more expensive overall to produce electricity this way. Don't get me wrong, I do thing that solar has the potential to become economical when used this way, but only after the price goes down (which it has the potential to).

[@Tamizushi]

@captcaveman4201 Just like the same can be said of computers, the price of solar panels HAS come down steadily for the past 40 years. The main driver has been innovation. I agree that no subsidies should be given to any fossil fuel market and I would even agree with a reasonable carbon tax (somewhere between 20 an 50$/Tonne) but even then solar would still not cast a shadow on oil an current price. Their price will have to go down by about 75% before that, not that it's impossible.

[@johnpuccetti9383]

We do have power. You must be an activist.

[@captcaveman4201]

@Tamizushi also i didnt say fuck everything manmade. I am just saying that some ideas that were made inside of someones head.. Are not nessasaraly the only ways of doing things..Even though they would have you beleive that they are. Things like stock markets, or credit cards, or gas pumps ect ect ect...

[@MyJastine]

@irocx29 .....

[@Tamizushi]

@captcaveman4201 Good luck with that.

Blackout was Aug 14. Worst birthday ever

[@KirillBerezin]

51:20 no, you don't

[@Tamizushi]

@captcaveman4201 I'm also pissed off by all the problems caused by a capitalist system but I don't know that we have any better alternative.

[@captcaveman4201]

Smart grid = no grid !!

[@Hyodoh7]

explosions were the best
don't waste an hour of your life!

[@brewmaster95060]

this is a solution looking for a problem I see ZERO benefit for me. this is STUPID!!!!!

[@brewmaster95060]
