BGE to Leverage Existing Silver Spring
Multi-Application IPv6 Platform to Connect Approximately 8,000 New
Intelligent Devices to Improve Reliability and Reduce
Interruptions
Silver Spring Networks, Inc. (NYSE: SSNI) today announced that
Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE) will leverage its Silver Spring
IPv6 smart grid platform to connect new devices in their
distribution system. The existing Silver Spring multi-application
platform will connect approximately 3,000 automated reclosers and
4,800 capacitor controls to enhance BGE’s Smart Grid across its
2,300 square mile service territory. Additionally, Silver Spring
will host its GridScape® Network Manager for BGE as
Software-as-a-Service to support out-of-band and in-band management
for polling, event management, diagnostics, real-time visualization
and auditing across all grid management devices.
The expanded grid management solution is estimated to eliminate
approximately 2 million interruptions for BGE customers per year.
In addition to supporting these critical intelligent devices,
Silver Spring’s fifth generation platform – Gen5 – is interoperable
with previous generations of Silver Spring technology deployed for
BGE, and can be used to support additional operational improvements
such as automated fault locating to help improve overall system
reliability.
“Our focus is on ensuring BGE customers are served by the most
reliable and efficient energy systems,” said Michael Butts,
Director of Transmission and Substation Engineering, BGE.
“Since 2010, we have deployed flexible, scalable solutions from
Silver Spring Networks, like the IPv6 platform, that are enabling
us to significantly improve grid operations and reliability.”
“We are honored to be able to continue building on our
long-standing partnership with BGE by supporting their large scale,
visionary grid management projects,” said Matt Smith, Senior
Director, Smart Grid Management, Silver Spring Networks. “Our
goal is to provide our customers with proven, open standards-based
connectivity solutions including the low latency, high data rate
and multi-layer security that are necessary for distribution
automation devices, which allow them to modernize their
distribution infrastructure and delivery of services to their
customers. We feel this latest roll-out by BGE is a prime example
of this.”
In order to better serve its more than 1.25 million customers
and meet Maryland’s energy efficiency and conservation goals, BGE
deployed Silver Spring IPv6 platform for its AMI Smart Grid Program
beginning in 2010 as part of its effort to streamline operations,
improve customer service and increase reliability. BGE estimates
cost savings of more than $1.5 billion for customers through smart
grid applications delivered on a single, unified platform.
Silver Spring helps utilities on five continents deploy smart
energy programs including distribution automation programs for
ComEd, CPFL Energia, CPS Energy, Florida Power & Light, Pepco
Holdings Inc., Sacramento Municipal Utility District and WEL
Networks.
