Research on the Security Technologies of Power Grid EMS Based on SOA

This article analyzes the accidents of power grid in some domestic region to discuss the security problems existing in the power grid Energy Management Systems (EMS). Combined with the security requirements of EMS, the method of improving EMS security based on SOA is proposed and the involving key technologies are studied as follows: the loosely coupled EMS based on SOA, the graded and modularity security configuration, the management of security configuration based on Concurrent Version System (CVS) and the mirror of Real-Time Databases (RTD) based on cloud computing. All the above technologies proposed in this paper greatly improve the security of EMS.

Transactive Energy

To effectively engage demand-side and distributed energy resources (DERs) for dynamically maintaining the electric power balance, the challenges of controlling and coordinating building equipment and DERs on a large scale must be overcome. Although several control techniques have been proposed in the literature, a significant obstacle to applying these techniques in practice is having access to an effective testing platform. Performing tests at scale using real equipment is impractical, so simulation offers the only viable route to developmental testing at scales of practical interest. Existing power-grid testbeds are unable to model individual residential end-use devices for developing detailed control formulations for responsive loads and DERs. Furthermore, they cannot simulate the control and communications at subminute timescales. To address these issues, this paper presents a novel power-grid simulation testbed for transactive energy management systems. Detailed models of primary home appliances (e.g., heating and cooling systems, water heaters, photovoltaic panels, energy storage systems) are provided to simulate realistic load behaviors in response to environmental parameters and control commands. The proposed testbed incorporates software as it will be deployed, and enables deployable software to interact with various building equipment models for end-to-end performance evaluation at scale.
