Cybersecurity of the Electric Power Transmission and Distribution System
Instructors: Dr. Murty V.V.S. Yalla, Beckwith Electric Co., Inc.; Steven A. Kunsman, ABB; Dr. Nathan Wallace, Ampirical; Scott R. Mix, NERC; J. Matt Cole, Sargent and Lundy
Cyber-attack on an Electric Power T&D communications system can have a devastating impact and cause widespread power outages as evident from the Dec 2015 cyber-attack on a Ukrainian Electric Power Distribution System. Securing Electric Power System from cyber-attacks is of national importance and in North America NERC is spearheading the effort in developing and enforcing Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) Standards for Bulk Electric System (BES). Local and state regulating agencies are also looking at cybersecurity of the Electric Power Distribution Systems. Substation protection, automation and control systems along with distribution field devices have changed significantly in the past decade. These systems have become more interconnected and provide end users with much more information to allow for higher reliability and greater levels of control. Interoperability between different vendor products and systems has been achieved using open standards. This change in technology has not only brought huge benefits from an operational point of view, it also permits to address cyber security issues similar to other traditional, enterprise systems which have been facing the same industry challenges for years.
The tutorial discusses cybersecurity basics including passwords & access management, authentication, encryption, network security monitoring, techniques in cyber alarming, logging, and auditing. The tutorial also covers NERC CIP requirements applicable to T&D systems along with brief overview of IEEE and IEC standards. Cybersecurity implementation examples of substation protection, automation and controls systems including devices inside as well as outside the substations are also discussed. Utility perspective on Cybersecurity and NERC CIP compliance will be included.

Distributed Energy Resources: Operation, Protection and Control
Instructors: Wayne G. Hartmann, VP, Protection and Smart Grid Solutions
This session provides a background in DER including history, rates, types, standby generation conversion, and operational modes. IEEE 1547 is explored with concentration of the protection at DER, with schemes for inverters and conventional machine based DER covered in depth. Protection and control impacts and solutions for the distribution system are illustrated. Microgrids are addressed as an extension to DER application. Control of DER assets is discussed in light of IEEE 1547A allowing active control of DER VAR output, and how conventional volt/VAR assets and DER assets can be coordinated to cope with variability of the growing renewable portfolio of DER installations.

IEEE 1547 Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Energy Resources with Electric Power Systems
Instructors: David Narang, NREL; Babak Enayati, National Grid; Jens Boemer, EPRI; Leo Casey, Google; Mark Siira, Comrent; Sudipta Chakraborty, NREL; Charlie Vartanian, MEPPI
This tutorial will introduce the IEEE 1547 “Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Energy Resources with Electric Power Systems.”
Due to the increasing amount of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) interconnections with the Electric Power System, the IEEE 1547 standard is going through a major revision to address some of the technical issues associated with high penetration of DERs i.e. grid support functionalities, etc.
The participants will learn about the major changes to the IEEE 1547 i. e. voltage regulation, response to abnormal system conditions (including voltage and frequency ride through), power quality, islanding, interoperability, etc.
The participants will also learn about the utility concerns/solutions to adopt the revised IEEE 1547 standard.

SG 204: Introduction to Smart Grid Data and Analytics
Instructor: Anant Venkateswaran, GE
This is an introductory level course to look at smart grid data and analytics, the focus is on the distribution and customer domains of the NIST model. The course covers the following key topics: What data is available from which devices, from the in home controller to meters to relays and substation automation, What applications can be done with the data, with a heavy focus on AMI and line devices, What is the value of each of the applications to the various stakeholders that are associated with the grid, using the Illinois Collaborative definitions of stakeholders.
The course will look at the process of collecting and verifying data, including all of the pitfalls that may occur and provide a 20 step process to go from no data to running analytics. The course is suitable for non-technical, as well as technical audiences, including regulatory, legislative, and utility staff members. The course will also compare and contrast the two major privacy contenders and the impact each would have on the ability to perform the analytic applications based on the principles of each contender. Included in the course will be a summary of the ARRA analytics that have been highlighted by the EPRI and DOE reports.

Transactive Energy Systems: Overview, Theory, Tool, Application, and Trend
Recently, Transactive Energy Systems (TES) have gained great interest in the Power and Energy community. TES optimizes the operation of distributed energy resources (DERs) through market-based transactions between participants. The underlying transactive coordination and control (TC2) incorporates the economic concepts and principles into the decision making and controller design of individual market participants, and uses value, in particular, price as the control signal to coordinate and achieve their distinct objectives. It shares the advantages of both direct load control and price responsive control. However, because TES is a newly emerging concept, it is still mysterious to the power community. In this tutorial, pioneering TES researchers will give lectures to demystify TES from different aspects including theory, tool and application.
This tutorial consists of 4 sessions:- Session 1: Introduction to Transactive Energy Systems
Presenter: Steve Widergren - Session 2: Demystifying Transactive Energy System from Control Perspective: Glossary, Principle, & Application
Presenter: Jianming (Jamie) Lian, Ph.D. - Session 3: Energy Internet: Concept, Business Model, Technology Spectrum and Pilot
Presenter: Haiwang Zhong - Session 4: Transactive Ener System Implementation in Europe
Presenter: Koen Kok
