Washington DC October 2012 A Vision for an Advanced Supervision and Control System for the Electric Grid Ramón A. León XM S.A. E.S.P Colombia

Washington DC October 2012 Introduction According to the new trends in power system supervision, XM has formulated a project to conceptualize, design and implement an Advanced Supervision and Control system in the Colombian power system based on the paradigms of WAMS and WAMPAC. The project proposes the radical evolution from the traditional Energy Management Systems being used today, towards the utilization of new technologies for measurement, analysis, computing and communications for control center operations. The planned solution will integrate “electrical” data with non-traditional asset monitoring data to implement a platform for complete system awareness.

Washington DC October 2012 Challenges for Fast Growing Economies GDP and demand growth above 5% Increased population densities around cities “Deficient” urban planning Increasing land costs Tighter environmental laws Sub-transmission and Distribution networks close to their capacity and their life cycle How to serve cities hungry for energy with improved reliability? How to serve them as economically as possible? Which technologies will enable all this non converging goals?
