SCE Strategy for a Clean Energy Future

• SCE is doing its part to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by providing its customers with energy from renewable resources

• Smart power delivery is needed to manage greater diversity of supply and to optimize existing capacity

• Smart metering enables customers to increase energy conservation and reduce peaks while improving customer service and operational efficiency

• Plug-in electric vehicles will achieve transportation sustainability and enable distributed energy storage systems

Innovation in Energy & Information Technology will Deliver Environmental

Benefits & Customer Value

WorkforceEffectiveness

Integrate and manage new sources of renewable and distributed energy supply and storage

Maximize workforce productivity, effectiveness, and safety by using enabling tools

Improve capital efficiency and assets using better intelligence and technology for optimal system planning & operations

Enable the grid to automatically adjust to changing loads and supply requirements

Empower customers to become “active” participants in the energy supply chain managing their own energy consumption

Synchronized Phasor Measurement System

• The growing complexity of interconnected electric grids increases the threat of blackouts and other operational challenges, facilitating the need for a smarter electric grid equipped with wide-area measurement units to monitor large grids

• Phasor measurement units (PMUs) help identify remote system disturbances in advance to prevent wide-scale power outages

• Power System Outlook (PSO) is a real-time tool that enables operators and engineers to quickly and affordably analyze synchro phasor measurement system data from a large power grid

Phasor technology enables real-time system monitoring

and reduces the probability of major disturbances

8


Distribution Automation

• Enable distributed energy resources and storage to support customer choice and improve grid stability

• Develop new technology for dynamic Volt/VAR and harmonics control to provide quality service and enable voltage conservation

• Minimize customer outages due to distribution system failures through expansive automation

• Development of superconducting devices such as fault current limiters and transformers
