Distribution grid dynamics will become increasingly complex due to the transition from passive to active networks arising from the increase of renewable energy sources at medium and voltage level. A successful transition requires to increase the observability and awareness of the interactions between Transmission and Distribution (T&D) grids, particularly to guarantee adequate operational security.
This presentation explores how different technical means can facilitate interactions between TSOs and DSOs with the utilization of GPS-time-synchronized phasor measurements (aka Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs)) with millisecond resolution. If made available in actual T&D networks, such high-sampled data across operational boundaries allows an opportunity to extract information related to different time-scales.
As part of the work carried out in the EU-funded FP7 IDE4L project (http://ide4l.eu/), a specific use case, containing PMU-based monitoring functions, has been defined to support the architecture design of future distribution grid automation systems. As a result, the architecture can accommodate for key dynamic information extraction and exchange between DSO and TSO.
This presentation presents the use case and focuses on the technical aspects related to the development and implementation of the PMU-based monitoring functionalities that can provide means to facilitate technical co-operation between transmission and distribution operations.

Background
• Currently,
TSOs
maintain
reduced
models
of
portions
of
the
distribution
networks,
however:
• The
models
covers
limited
portions
of
the
distribution
network
due
to
the
lack
of
network
“observability”
(measurement
points)
and
computational
burden
associated
with
simulating
large
joint
T&D
models.
• The
models
are
not
updated
frequently.
• The
reduction
methods,
used
by
TSOs,
often
make
assumptions
that
are
no
longer
valid
for
active
distribution
networks.

Conclusions
• The
increase
of
intermittent
renewable
sources
at
the
distribution
network
bring
technical
challenges into
DSO
operations.
• Synchrophasor
measurements
have
a
great
potential
to
support
the
technical
operation
of
distribution
networks
• Applications
can
play
an
important
role
of
extracting
key
information
about
the
operation
of
the
grid
• TSOs-‐to-‐DSOs
interaction
in
operations
through
PMU
Apps.
• DSOs
can
enhance
the
way
they
operate
by
having
better
knowledge
of
the
system’s
performance
in
near
real-‐time
• TSOs
can
gain
visibility
of
the
phenomena
at
lower
voltage
levels, and
device
actions
• Real-‐time
automatic
control
and
protection
is
the
next
big
step
• Existing
architecture,
automation
and
system
level
technology
not
up
to
the
task
• Interoperability
and
Standardization:
• Too
slow
and
maybe
even
useless
without
Open
Source
Software
and
Hardware
platforms
and
building
blocks
• Need
to
develop
and
support
a
truly
open
market
of
products
and
services
