20. PJM©2014 20 www.pjm.com The Caveat –One individual’s take on a wish list The Theme –Look for solutions with the broadest applicability Some “Wishes” Linked to Identified Priorities

21. PJM©2014 21 www.pjm.com Priority 1 – Manage the Risk Risk Management –A process that examines and evaluates policies, plans, and actions for reducing the impact of a hazard or hazards on people, property and the environment. 1.Managing expectations – Potential New Normal 2.Resilience for All Hazards 3.Drill/Train for Creativity in Crisis

22. PJM©2014 22 www.pjm.com Priority 2 – Cost Effective Strengthening 1.Identify the greatest Interdependencies of the Critical Infrastructures –Communications –Fuel Delivery 2.Develop & Implement the solutions which strengthen these points for the greatest operational ROI

23. PJM©2014 23 www.pjm.com Priority 3: Increase System Flexibility and Robustness Additional transmission lines increase power flow capacity 1.How do you Justify? To a Commission? To a Community? 2.Reliability Criteria but what of Resilience Criteria? Micro Grids 1.Fully understanding the impact of not being interconnected 2.Decision Criteria Developed & People Drilled Market Solutions and Coordination

24. PJM©2014 24 www.pjm.com Priority 4: Increase Visualization and Situational Awareness SMART Meters and outage notification capability coupled with automated feeder switching, Synchrophasor technology 1.Ensure Reality = Reputation 2.Reduce State Estimation 3.Parallel Data Inputs & Solutions

25. PJM©2014 25 www.pjm.com Priority 5: Deploy Advanced Control Capabilities –blackouts illustrate that real-time monitoring tools were inadequate to alert operators to rapidly changing system conditions and contingencies –Providing operators with new tools that enhance visibility and control of transmission and generation facilities could help them manage the range of uncertainty caused by variable clean electricity generation and smart load, thus enhancing the understanding of grid operations 1.Solutions to Harden Model Stability – with imperfect and incomplete data

26. PJM©2014 26 www.pjm.com Priority 6: Availability of Critical Components and Software Systems Transformers Study Spare 1.Adaptability through Standards 2.Best Locations & Storage O ptions

27. PJM©2014 27 www.pjm.com A System Operator’s Resilience “Wishes” - Summary 1. Work to develop repeatable Resilience ROI quantification methodologies. VALUE = X 2. Integrate Resilience Solutions to address - All Hazards frameworks (Weather to Terrorists) for far greater ROI. VALUE = 2X 3. Coordinate Resilience Solutions across the highly interdependent critical infrastructures VALUE = 2X Squared?
