  3. Consumers Energy’s Service Territory • 1.8 Million Electric Meters • 1.6 Million Gas Meters • 1 Million gas meters in non Consumers Energy’s service territory

  4. AMI – Observations • Differences between systems • Proprietary Communication Technology • System logging and auditing • Device registration – device dependant • Collector • Meter • Substation metering • Other (smart grid devices, etc) • Network management interfaces • Outage reporting • Troubleshooting • Monitoring performance • System configuration and upgrades

  5. AMI – Observations (Cont.) • AMI communication vendors are not interoperable for maintenance and management • Meter • Collector/Access Point/Mesh Gate/Take out point/Cell Relay/Tower Gateway Base Station/ Base Station • HAN ESP interface managed and implemented different between vendors

  6. AMI-Network TF Proposal • Define the devices and well defined points of interoperability within the AMI network for maintenance • Define the benefits of interoperability between AMI network maintenance components to utilities • Sharing backhauls • Gas AMR meters • Water AMR meters • Hybrid AMI systems • Point to Point and mesh and PLC

  7. Proposed TF Scope • Evaluate existing Maintenance Use Cases • Define New Maintenance Use Cases • Define System Functional Requirements for AMI meters to the AMI head end for maintenance/lifecycle purposes • Identify areas within an AMI network that are viable for maintenance interoperability • Scope is outside of OpenHAN and the Zigbee/Homeplug efforts • Input from the Group???

  8. Evaluate Existing Use Cases • SCE use cases • S1 AMI system recovers after power outage, communications or equipment failure • U1 Utility installs, provisions and configures AMI system • U2 Utility manages end-to-end life-cycle of the meter system • U3 Utility upgrades AMI system to address future requirements • Other Utility use cases • AMI Vendor use cases

  9. Define New Use Cases • Focus on maintenance life cycle related activities for the meter thru the head end system • Avoid HAN use cases with the exception of the AMI Communication interface with the ESP • IP/3rd party gateways

  10. Functional Requirements • Create a SRS (system requirements specification) similar to OpenHAN’s efforts • Derive requirements from the use case review • Focus on the AMI head end to the meter from a network maintenance perspective • Input from the group???

  11. Schedule • Meet via teleconference every 3 weeks • Meet at every UCA face to face meeting Questions/Comments? Next Steps?
