Convergence of electricity with information and communication technologies (ICT) creates a highly automated power grid that allows a continuous data exchange between different parts of system. This intelligent and self-healing grid, known as "Smart Grid", consists of the following building blocks:
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), advanced transmission and distribution automation, distributed generation, electric vehicle refueling infrastructure and renewable energy generation projects of today.
PAYA ENERGY's extensive knowledge and experience in electrical, communication and software engineering, provides project management maturity for implementation of smart grid infrastructures.
We support the following services:
· Consultation, feasibility study and analysis to determine best-fit solutions based on resources, environmental issues and goals.
· Submitting conceptual plan and design that satisfies essential requirements and goals.
· Independent test and assessment of different parts of proposed plan.
· Development of customized Meter Data Management (MDM) and Head-End System (HES) to be used in AMI networks

AMI Implementation for High Consumption Customers
To reduce electrical distribution losses and to overcome to the foreseen electrical shortage in summer, Tavanir created required facilities by AMI network development and introduced Demand Response Programs. More than 250,000 high consumption customers covered in this plan. Measurement equipment were HVCT and LVCT smart meters and 6 CAS systems collected and analyzed data. The plan will be extended for 3-phase DC meters in future. Interoperability in AMI network in Iran
To move AMI projects forward and as the first step, Energy Efficiency Organization of Iran (SABA) decided to establish interoperability in a layer higher than Head End System. All Head End Systems support IEC 61968-9 standard and MDM can talk to HES by this standard. Although the chosen standard was IEC 61968-9, but it could not fulfill interoperability individually. Therefore, a local specification called FID1 prepared and published. In the second step interoperability specifications in meter layer, called FID2, provided. Each meter that supports FID2 specification, complies with European IDIS specification as well. Paya Energy was an active memebr in providing these specifications.
6th CAS system in Iran AMI network
After a succeful presence in AMI activities by Paya Energy, a tripartite agreement signed by Tavanir, EPEDC (Esfahan Province Electrical Distribution Company) and Paud Raad Industrial Group for the 6th FAHAM CAS. Paya MDM-HES will be the chosen software in this center. |
