extended to LV systems

Upgraded SCADA with added real-time functionality

Real-time “Internet” management•Increased penetration of DP

•Higher fault rating level•Limit of SCADA control forcommunication and security

•Sophisticated automation•Plug and Play abilities for DP•High level of reliability and security

•Low penetration of DP•Extended remote control to LV•Some security services provided

•Radial network topology•Remote control mainly at HV levels•Security from transmission capacity

Emphasis on energy value/kWh

Emphasis on information value/kWh

Real-time trading requires sophisticated automation

From passive Network to Intelligent Active Network

Fault detection


• Methods and tools- identification & assessment of critical services & assets (information)- assessments of vulnerabilities, interdependencies & threats (soc. tech.)- dependability cases, verification & validation, system evaluation- risk management (business, society)

• Software systems and components - dependable components and configurations- intrusion detection- service protocols, virtual private networks, protection of information and access- recovery after attacks, survivability

• Others- legal & regulatory liability, business models- policy: critical infrastructure protection, de-regulation- information sharing

Tasks for each of the application areas
