Zhang Xin of the Electric Power Research Institute: Combining MEC technology to meet the key needs of smart grid

On April 27, 2018, the MEC Technology and Industry Summit hosted by the entire media of the Communication World was held in Beijing. Zhang Xin, Technical Manager of the Institute of Information and Communication, Electric Power Research Institute, delivered a keynote speech entitled "Application of Mobile Edge Computing in Smart Grid", focusing on the development trend of smart grid, smart grid business demand, and MEC grid application exploration. aspect.

Zhang Xin of the Electric Power Research Institute: Combining MEC technology to meet the key needs of smart grid

Smart Grid's new demand for ICT technology

Zhang Xin introduced that there are three main features of the smart grid;

The first is based on the impact of large-scale access to new energy and new services.

The second is precision load control, from power transmission and transformation control to the distribution network, distributed power supply and user-side end.

The third is the explosive growth of information “acquisition”, including the interaction between the electricity meter and the grid, and the demand side response.

Based on this, the smart grid puts new demands on ICT technology. Zhang Xin said: "The business transformation of smart grid requires a substantial increase in the ability of information communication to support the grid business. It requires high-speed, diverse, real-time full-featured and full-time online, ubiquitous, open, interactive, and Intelligence and credibility raise new demands."

In terms of power system, with the expansion of system scale and the deepening of smart grid construction, Internet technology, new sensor technology and robot technology have been replacing traditional grid operation methods, which has led to the transformation of grid operation into machine intelligence, sensory intelligence and computational intelligence. .

In terms of communication networks, smart meters are the core intelligent terminals that collect data, service real-time requirements, and forecast accuracy requirements are constantly improving to support a wider range of grid services.

The meaning of mobile edge computing in smart grid

“The national grid application MEC technology is mainly reflected in the two aspects of power consumption information collection and distribution network automation. The electricity service is mainly based on smart meters and some requirements brought by future random metering, including the number of connections, reliability and delay requirements. In addition, in terms of power distribution, the delay requirement is 50 milliseconds and the reliability is 99.99%. Because of different service characteristics, QoS service quality assurance requirements are different. The introduction of edge technology and 5G slicing technology will be able to allocate network resources for different services and distinguish communication indicators. Differentiation." Zhang Xin said.

Zhang Xin said that the application of mobile edge computing mode in smart grid is manifested in the following aspects;

Improve the processing power of massive heterogeneous data in the smart grid and improve the real-time performance of business processing.

Improve the data processing and decision-making capabilities of smart grid terminals and expand business types.

Improve application intelligence, reduce reliance on centralized data centers, and reduce data transmission and processing costs to complement national network cloud services.

Improve the security and privacy protection capabilities of smart grid systems.
