1 risks or failures that happen each year. Due to these changes, several other p. p. 72
NON-CONFIDENTIAL 1 risks or failures that happen each year. Due to these changes, several other 12 (c) Please provide the mitigation effectiveness (i.e. percent reliability improvement) for 13 each of the listed subprograms, separately (Co...

AI summary The text requests information on the mitigation effectiveness of subprograms, grid visibility and monitoring capabilities, and the level of control over Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). It also asks how the reliability plan exceeds existing requirements.

Preamble p. p. 187
The ability to configure and maintain the TCC configuration on distribution devices will become increasingly complex to manage as the grid continues to accommodate distributed energy resources and associated bidirectional power flows. More...

AI summary As the grid integrates more distributed energy resources, managing TCC configurations on distribution devices is becoming more complex. Advanced technologies, such as low-energy test pulses, can improve fault detection, isolation, and restoration, leading to faster service restoration and reduced outage durations.

2.5.3 NRCan National Resources Canada (NRCan) is investing in Smart Grids to support the modernization of the safe and secure delivery of electricity. Since 2012, NRCan has confirmed funding to demonstration projects that work towards smar...

AI summary National Resources Canada (NRCan) is investing in smart grid technologies to modernize electricity delivery. Since 2012, NRCan has supported demonstration projects, including FLISR, DERMS, and DI Apps, aimed at improving grid reliability and resilience. In 2025, NRCan approved funding for three projects by NS Power.

NON-CONFIDENTIAL 1 (iii) Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) – NS Power does not currently have 2 enhanced condition data from DERs in any systematic program and DER-related 3 enhanced data is not yet a feature of NS Power's asset manageme...

AI summary NS Power lacks systematic data collection from DERs and is evaluating a DERMS platform. RTUs provide enhanced data on asset conditions, supporting outage awareness, fault detection, and asset management, which can help identify equipment deterioration and operational risks.
