The world is changing
• Will you wash your clothes at 9pm to save 10
cents?
• Would you drive an extra quarter mile for 10%
cheaper gas (that’s 30 cents less)?
• Would you like it if your car could fill itself?

–
–
with less carbon
while you sleep, or while you work, or while you shop
without needing you to stand in the rain, snow, heat
for 50% less per gallon (that’s $1.5 less per gallon)
• What if it could trade energy based on your
settings and pay for your driving all week long?
• In 1978 could you have believed in an
everywhere connected, email capable, computer
– With phone, music & video, and navigation, that fits in your pocket?
– The edge of the Grid’s equivalent of the “computing revolution”
The perimeter is changing

Common theme whether a standard is
national, international, or defacto.
The AMI eco-system (size and longevity)
• One off’s will increase costs in the long run
– Gain economy of scale from collaborative software
– Lower integration cost from test from industry
– Reduced complexity from devices built to fit
• End to end design from the beginning
– The device/network characteristic effect browser app.
– The software designed and tested for the eco-system
• Full life cycle design from the beginning
– In house changes (one off’s) cause next update issue
– Plan for more than implementation
• X years of the business case means x years of planning
– Plan for a whole new realm of security
Who is working collaboratively?
• Network beyond the meter (HAN)
– UCAiug (OpenHAN), (ZigBee/Homeplug alliance),
NIST (H2G, I2G, ...) EPRI(HAN team), …
• Transporation
– SAE, EPRI(transportation team), NIST (V2G), …
Just within the HAN area
