1. 13th Symposium: Evolutions in Power Systems The Digital Substation

2. Most of us are not old enough to have seen such a substation in action.
Did some research to see where we come from
- Picture of a substation in 1959
Substation supervision: engineer living on-site
Until 1970, exclusively male engineers
Every design needs a good back-up: if the engineer was in the field, the wife had to take over supervision

3. Program: The Digital Substation
14:10 Towards multi-vendor interoperability over systems lifecycle, The ENTSO-E approach – Grégory Huon, ENTSO-E 14:50 Full use of digital technology in HV substations, from process till control center – Stefaan Vleeschouwers, ABB 15:30 How to give the digital substation hands and feet - Kim Vrancken, Eandis 16:10 Coffee break 16:40 Smart Secondary Distribution Substations: an SME Perpective– Rik Verheyen, Tom De Rybel, Bausch Datacom 17:20 IED development for grid automation with an open lab-scale platform – Stijn Uytterhoeven, Laborelec, Filip Langenaken, National Instruments
We moved away from manual/human control to automated controls
Digital technology is being gradually introduced, but we are on the verge of total implementation
Brings along certain questions
How to let measurements/control/protection talk to each other?
How to visualize data to operators?
What decisions do we take?
How do we practically implement it
Five presentations: before the break we have the overview from the user/grid perspective and after the break we look deeper into bringing the concepts into reality
