7. New business model:
Demand Response
 Electricity peak consumption management and network
balance mechanism (P=C)
 Flexibility of electricity demand and generation schedules
have become an asset that can be monetized. Power
consumption schedules can be optimized to minimize costs
and CO2 content.

8. The upcoming paradigm
Demand
is random but can be predicted
Production can be planned

9. Management of balancing reserves

10. Fast reserve: expensive & carbon
intensive
Example of France
 12 GW of installed power
 Fuel, Natural Gas
 10,2% of capacity around Paris
 Over 4GW to build

29. Global M2M partnership project
World-Wide standardization of a M2M service layer
Initial cooperation between the following SDO:
• ETSI (Europe)
• ARIB (Japan)
• TTC (Japan)
• ATIS (US)
• TIA (US)
• CCSA (China)
• TTA (Korea)
Verticals are invited to the work like ITS, Continua, ESMIG,
etc.
