Where Clean Energy started!
Hydroelectric power, started in our valley at the end of the 19th century
… This in turn led to the start of many activities such as: • Electricity production and supply: EDF, Gaz
Electricité de Grenoble, • Manufacture of turbines, penstocks, cable, electrical
equipment, etc.: Alstom, Prysmian, Schneider Electric, etc.
• Electrometallurgy: Pechiney, Ascometal, etc.
• The start of many subcontractors in metal-working, boiler-making, safety, etc. in parallel with specialist engineering firms: Artelia, Atos, etc.

GreenLys in Grenoble,a System View Pilot Project for Smart Grids
Goal : Implement a technological show case, by developing two experimental technology platforms, in Lyon and Grenoble, by 2016, in order to prepare a widespread deployment
- Call for demo project from ADEME / French government- Pilot project proposal in two cities: Grenoble & Lyon
grenoble-isere-france
The Consortium: 11 partners
- Academics & research centers• Grenoble INP technological university• LEPII Grenoble university for economics• CEA LITEN R&D center- Electrical chain • RTE TSO• Core partners: ERDF nationwide DSO project coordinator, Gaz
electricite de Grenoble local utility, GDF SUEZ national suppliers, HESPUL distributed producers association, Rhonalpenergie local communities association
- Technology providers• Energy technology providers: Schneider Electric, Alstom• ICT technology provider : ATOS world Grid
grenoble-isere-france
1 - A consortium involving different types of smart grid stakeholders
• Covering the whole value chain of the electrical system:• DSO, TSO, suppliers, technology providers (energy systems, ICT)• Universities and R&D centers• End-users, local communities, producers associations
2 - A project to build up a systemic vision
Coupling an advanced distribution network with a management of a complete DER portfolio (distributed generation, flexible loads and electrical vehicles) through AMI, including the LINKY smart meter

3 - A demonstrator to experiment the Smart Grid at a real and significant scale
4 districts within 2 cities, representatives of a diversified population An ambition which could reach 2,000 residential end-users (1,000 in each city) Two complementary sites: Nationwide DSO (ErDF – Lyon) and Integrated local DSO (GEG Grenoble) Complementary experimentations (technological options, regulated or not tariff)
4 - Expected results
Analysis of the added value chain for market development Analysis of the transitions for larger scale smart grid deployment

The Aggregator => new actor in the Smart Grid systemThe operator who manages load curtailment and decentralized power productions, according to the needs of the electrical network
Using an operational control command chain in interaction with the other actors in the system: network operators, producers, providers, consumersWith the requirement to maintain the users’ comfort
grenoble-isere-france
The Aggregator => experimental results of curtailmentProgression:
• More than 20,000 curtailments carried out during the two last heating seasons• Data acquisition in order to build predictive models• Technical characterization of curtailment: rebound and payback effects• An analysis of the impact of these curtailment on users comfort• Flexibility forecasting and curtailment optimization algorithms• First interaction tests with the Distribution Network Operator

A Wiser Solution => a connected solution providing innovative services to residential customers• Easy to install• User-centeredOFFERING:• Control of consumption,• Optimized comfort.
• Intuitive• Allowing consumer choiceENSURING:• Curtailment implementation withrespect to comfort parameters

Energy Management on Tertiary Sites=> preserving comfort for occupants
Objective: develop a DR system for tertiary sites, triggered by the aggregatorProgression: 1st prototype of a full-scale curtailment system on a site located on Schneider Electric GIANT (38TEC) Presqu’ile- Experimental results complemented with a numerical model- 3 other sites will be instrumented in 2014- Load shed without impacting the comfort of the 150 occupants of two office buildings (3,600m2)

Advanced Network Functions => facilitate the flexibilityIn Lyon
Curtailment simulation with real data from the experimental area (Vaise Substation)Decentralized resources flexibility use, driven out of the purchase obligation Promote the PV integration• local voltage regulation• development of the DER predictive system PrevERDF
In Grenoble
Simulations with real data from the experimental area Centralized productions flexibility use, driven out of the purchase obligation Optimization of the EV loading• Linked with the PV production• Minimizing impact on the whole system Promote PV integration• Controlling reactive power• Working on a predictive model

The DSO:=> optimal network operation
DSO objectives :
• Serve as facilitator for aggregator curtailment offers• Define curtailment impact on thedistribution network• Ensure the security and safety of network operations
Progression :
• DSO associated in the loop of flexibilityprograms certification• Creation of algorithms for flexibilityprograms certification• Advise the aggregator on the location of curtailment

• The largest Smart Grid pilot project demo in France
• €40M (Smart Meters/AMI not incl.–already funded)
• High expectations and foreseen difficulties• A solid and engaged consortium• Ramping up with engaged end-users
• Next steps: recruit more end-users & LINKY customers, more B2B users, ramp up EV infrastructure, & further develop advanced functions, e.g. self-healing
