Accelerating the Smart Grid Globally
Smart Grid Interoperability Panel
orchestrates the work behind power grid modernization
NARRATIVE PROCESS
provides a framework for orchestrating all Smart Grid stakeholders to accelerate standards harmonization and interoperability
SGIP
Identify requirements for interoperability◦ Evaluate technology standards & gaps
Influence how the electric grid is modernized Access collected knowledge of all the domains
in the Smart Grid ecosystem to accelerate interoperability, testing, & certification
Educate government agencies, regulators, operators and suppliers on the value of an interoperable Smart Grid
SGIP’s Role
The modernized electrical power grid is expanding
SGIP eases Smart Grid growing pains by◦ Gathering, documenting customers’ requirements ◦ Engaging all stakeholders to identify and solve
critical problems◦ Encouraging practical implementations◦ Overseeing the path to interoperability through
linking Smart Grid hardware, software and systems
Enabling Interoperable Solutions
Optimizes resources and time Avoids proprietary vendor lock-in Helps build technology roadmaps Simplifies decision making
SGIP Reduces Risks and Costs
SGIP is a collaborative, transparent, and trusted forum to share standards information and practical, hands-on knowledge about deployments from
industry experts.
Integration of Distributed Energy Resources with existing electrical grid in each country
Microgrid control and operation use cases Cybersecurity Risk Management Process Harmonizing weather information models Identifying interoperability gaps around the
nexus of Energy, Water, and Environmental issues
Technical Trends Global Smart Grid
Proprietary standards or country-specific standards are costly barriers for vendors to overcome
◦May eliminate lower cost solutions
◦Reduces innovation from new market entrants
Lack of knowledge of the benefits from adopting standards to drive interoperable solutions
Regulatory Barriers for Smart Grid
Liaisons with several other country organizations to align Smart Grid architecture models and coordinate◦ Korea Smart Grid Standardization Forum (KSGSF)◦ Japan Smart Community Alliance (JSCA)◦ European Union Smart Grid Coordination Group (SG-CG )◦ Ecuadorian Energy National Control Centre (CENACE)◦ Colombia lnteligente lniciative (CII) and ICONTEC◦ National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology of
Brazil (Inmetro)
