The Big PictureAdditional Perspective on Smart Grid‐Related Reliability Issues
• Reliability improvements significant in percentage terms, but not likely enough for customers to perceive
99.95% reliability = 4.4 hours out per customer per year
A 20% improvement translates into 3.5 hours
• Beauty (reliability value) is in the eye of the beholder
• The law of diminishing returns applies (big time!)g pp ( g )
• Smart grid’s greatest reliability value may lie in the future

Emerging Technologies Key Strategies Drive Smart Grid Efficiency
Use a standards-based approach Apply standards in developing smart grid infrastructure to
economic and longevity reasons.
Use IP-based communications systemsUse IP based communications systems Apply Internet-based protocols (where available) as the standard
for transport layer.
Buy versus build Buy versus build Utilize existing publicly available communications infrastructure
where it makes sense.
Used distributed processing/intelligence systems Distribute processing/intelligence to help alleviate latency and
cost-of-transport issues associated with heavy volumes of data.
