SYNERGIES IN ROLL-OUT OF NETWORKS BY ENERGY UTILITIES AND TELECOMS Paulo Mourato Mendes Inspection and Investigation Department Infrastructure and Equipment Division Lisbon, Portugal Brussels, 26th of June, 2014
ANACOM - PORTUGAL ANACOM is the regulator, supervisor and representative of the communications sector in Portugal (electronic and postal) Market regulation Market oversight Representation of communication sector President: Fátima Barros
Presentation topics The importance of the synergies between those two worlds: Telecommunications and Energy The Portuguese experience - InovCity Portuguese telecommunication regulations (ITED and ITUR), that reflects the Cost Reduction Directive Possible ways of incitement
The Grid!
The Smart!
The Real Smart! Control, Command and Communications Traffic control system Adaptative and automatic control Disaster proof Cost efficient Transparent to the user Control, Command and Communications
Preventing disaster
World Heritage (Unesco) City of Évora World Heritage (Unesco)
InovCity – Évora - 2008 Selected by JRC (Joint Research Centre of EU) as an European case study on Smart Grids (September 2012)
InovCity – Évora 31.000 clients 360 concentration points 3 types of Smart Meters 80% PLC from SM to transformers 100% GPRS from transformer to utility (or 868MHz – ANACOM license) New undergoing projets: - Madeira Island - Batalha - Guimarães - Cantanhede

Portugal 2014 Project Leaders: 3 Inteli (no profit association) UBI (University) EDP (electricity utilitie) Partners: - Research and Development: 28 - Demo and Deployment: 29 Implementation Sites: 10 Total Budget: 60,5 M€
Telecommunication Infrastructures Inside Buildings ITED Manual (3rd edition) – Technical rules of project, instalation and tests of fixed telecommunications inside buildings: - Copper pair – cat6 - Coaxial cable - Optical fibre
Telecommunication Infrastructures Outside Buildings ITUR Manual (2nd edition) – Technical rules of project and instalation of telecommunications infrastuctures outside buildings
ITED and ITUR Manuals Completely aligned with European Normalization Costs are reduced according with EU Directive Minimum rules, flexibilizing processes Multioperators acess and distribution Rehabilitation of existent buildings and sites Great care of historical centres The operators share the existent infrastructures Aerial communication lines are not allowed in buildings
Possible ways of incitement
Possible ways of incitement Promoting the use of renewable energy sources / micro-generation Incentives for energy efficiency / reduce consuming Active costumers / informed costumers Is there suficient knowledge in electricity/communications companies? Are there suficient exchange of information between electricity and communication companies?
Change in Mentalities
MUITO OBRIGADO (Thank You Very Much)
