Taken from the briefing Smart Grid Privacy and Data Access - An Overview of Recent Federal, State and Private Sector Initiatives recorded June 2012.

The rapidly increasing deployment of smart meters is creating a vibrant market for data analytics. Currently, there are more than 20 states that have smart meter penetration rates in excess of 50 percent. By 2016, analysts estimate that the advanced meter infrastructure (AMI) market will generate $4.56 billion in revenues. An increasing share of these revenues will go to smaller, non-utility firms providing detailed analysis of the voluminous energy usage information that can be generated from smart meters.

These firms will also be facing increasing privacy regulation. Although the information generated from smart meters can help consumers and utilities manage their energy usage and lower costs, it also creates highly granular energy consumption data that may reveal personal details. Consumers and regulators rightfully expect that the privacy of this information will be maintained. And as the Department of Energy has recognized, the long-term success of smart grid technologies depends on protecting consumers’ rights to privacy, security and control over who has access to this sensitive information. But how will privacy rights and data access be controlled and protected? And what enforcement regimes can new entrants into this market expect?

Lecture Topics [Total Time: 01:07:44]

Eric M. Lightner, Jules Polonetsky, and Michael H. Pryor, will examine federal, state and private sector smart grid privacy and data access initiatives and developments. The presenters discuss:

Privacy implications of smart meter data
Federal efforts to identify key privacy and data access issues and to foster collaboration and consensus among stakeholders
Opportunities and challenges for third party access to data
Adoption of comprehensive state regulations that govern access and use by utilities and third parties
