SMi's 3rd annual Distribution Automation Europe conference will bring you the latest developments in Europe with a focus on communications system architecture and the issue of the impact of distributed generation on DA. With a completely new speaker line up, more project case studies and senior line up of international speakers SMi is delighted to announce the participation of Mr Kemal Celik, Vice-President, Smart Grid Technologies & Grid Management at Nexant as speaker on day two.
Mr Kemal Celik will be speaking on The New Demand Side Management (DSM) Paradigm
-Addressing objectives to utilise local and sustainable energy sources while significantly reducing energy consumption through demand side management
-Achieving sustainable energy sourcing with local distributed energy production while reducing energy consumption through installation of smart energy management systems (SEMS) at customer sites
-Benchmarking energy consumption at individual customer level and generating personalised advice to reduce real-time demand
-Balancing of energy demand and response and calculating CO2 to allow participants to act on price and emission levels
Key topics of this conference:
-How to improve communication system architecture to make it fit for purpose for distribution automation
-How supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are evolving to support the demands of distribution automation
-Enhancing the visibility of distributed (renewable) generation to determine total network energy
-How to use strategic fault level management to improve system protection design
-Reducing maintenance costs and extending equipment life with condition-based monitoring
-Combining network automation and interruptible service to increase capacity
-Using data analytics to identify network problems and signal veracity from real-time information
