Daniel Simounet, Director Transportation - North America March 25th 2015 Smart City Expo Montreal 2015 Future changes in city consumption patterns will require Smart energy management solutions ABB – A global leader in power and automation technologies • • • • • © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 2 147,000 employees in about 100 countries $42 billion in revenue (2013) Formed in 1988 merger of Swiss and Swedish companies 7,000 employees in Canada >3,000 employees in the province of Quebec Prioritize Smart City targets: Start with the fundamentals 1. Smart transportation Consider overall goals 2. Energy efficiency Bolster weak spots 3. Smart grids Seek out quick paybacks 4. Smart water 5. Smart streetlights 6. Public safety 7. Digital government services, smart payments © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 3 seven suggested focus areas Why changing consumption patterns ? Transportation in the city © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 4 Urbanization: 54% of the world’s population resides in urban areas in 20141 Increasing of traffic congestion issues Non-productive for workers & reduces city economic health More toxic emissions causing pollution & global warming (40% of all CO2 emissions from transport in urban areas ~ 12% of total CO2 emissions) Impacting human health (stress, asthma, accidents, etc.) Source: World Urbanization Prospects report 2014 – United Nation - (1) Proportions of urban and rural population in the current country or area in per cent of the total population, 1950 to 2050. (2) Proportions of urban population in the current country as compared to the major area and region in which this country is located. The proportion is expressed in per cent of the population between 1950 and 2050. Electrification of transport a real trend inside the city © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 5 More light rail projects in the cities (ex. in Canada: Calgary, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Edmonton, etc.) More Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems with adoption of hybrid and electric propulsion (predicted compound annual growth rate of 20.6 percent for Hybrid & electric transit buses by 2020 - Frost & Sullivan 2013 research) Despite timid adoption of electric cars, trend is very encouraging Impacts on the electrical grid one of many barriers to faster adoption ? A rail substation consumes as much as 500-750 homes Rapid deployment of fast charging infrastructure for EV cars and Buses Phase-out of fossil-based generation and adoption of renewable energy result in more imbalance issues between demand and generation Daily consumption of a rail substation 2.500 20 2.000 15 1.500 10 1.000 5 500 0 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 0 Actual Demand 6000 4000 2000 0 © ABB April 7, 2015 | Slide 6 7:10 7:20 7:30 Trains per hour Rail networks have extremely high & rising peak power demand kWh / hr Energy storage for Rail - ABB ENVILINETM ESS Captures braking energy, sustains acceleration Opportunity of 10 to 20% savings & © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 7 Philadelphia SEPTA – Energy Optimization Project Serving Urban Transportation and Utilities together Project Facts at a Glance Energy Savings: - 1.5 MWh savings per day - 70kW demand reduction - $40-60K savings / year Energy Market Revenues - >$200k per year Environmental Benefits - CO2: > 1,000 tons - SO2: > 5 tons - Nox: > 1 ton - Mercury: > 50 pounds © ABB April 7, 2015 | Slide 8 Geneva - 15 seconds charging electric bus A world premier in sustainable mobility - TOSA Support and Collaboration: Energy storage for electric bus An enabler for future E-BRT networks deployment A technology to eliminate peaks from electric bus fast charging Allowing partial charges automatically at bus stops in 15 seconds without impacting the grid & eliminating demand charges A Technology allowing implementation of trolley bus lines without catenary wires Ideal for the electrification of BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) lines © ABB Group April 7, 2015 | Slide 10 Source: Peak demand charges and electric transit buses - White paper – US Department of transportation Federal Transportation agency – prepared by Ted Bloch-Rubin, Jean-Baptiste Gallo & Jasna Tomié CALSTART – 8/14/2014 Conclusion ABB and industry have invested in a lot of innovative solutions to support future changes in city energy consumption patterns Transportation is ready to move to the next level involving electrification with innovative and economically feasible solutions limiting impacts to the grid Our ability, as a society, to accept the “risk to change” will be critical for the future of our planet "There are costs and risks to a program of action, but they are far less than the long range risks and costs of comfortable inaction." - John F.
