For many utilities closely coupled with neighbouring comp anies\, their EMS models consist of the internal parts\, which represent t heir own service territories\, and the external parts\, which describe the interconnected external grids. The integration and updating of external g rids into EMS remain a challenge in model maintenance for those utilities due to lack of common standard in information exchange\, where differences in data format and structure complicates model sharing among entities.&nb sp\;<br />To resolve the problem\, AEP proposed and adopted a Common Infor mation Model (CIM) based approach to facilitate external model update (XMU ). This approach standardizes network models from different companies\, th erefore enables convenient inter-corporate model exchanging and customizat ion to fit for individual specifications. Furthermore\, the CIM based appr oach is able to clearly delineate boundaries between internal and external regions so that network components in need of updating can be sought out and managed easily.&nbsp\;<br />Till now\, AEP has used the CIM-based appr oach to facilitate multiple XMUs in all three of its service territories g overned by ERCOT\, SPP and PJM respectively. As a result\, the time consum ption of each XMU has reduced from weeks to hours and the external model r evision cycle has shortened from years to months. With more frequent exter nal model revisions\, the accuracy of network model enhanced significantly \, resulting in a more reliable system to support control room functions.< /p>\n<p>&nbsp\;</p><br /><br />Agenda: <br /><p><strong>4:50 - 5:00 PM: We lcome and Introduction</strong></p>\n<p><strong>5:00 - 5:55 PM: Presentati on</strong></p>\n<p><strong>5:55 - 6:00 PM: Q&amp\;A</strong></p> END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
