Smart Grid Interoperability Standards David Su, NIST On Behalf of TIA and ANSI and for George W. Arnold, Eng.Sc.D. National Coordinator for Smart Grid Interoperability National Institute of Standards and Technology

U.S. Initiative on Smart Grid Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 initiated work to develop the Smart Grid Interoperability Framework In cooperation with the DoE, NEMA, IEEE, GWAC, and other stakeholders, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has “primary responsibility to coordinate development of a framework that includes protocols and model standards for information management to achieve interoperability of smart grid devices and systems …”

The Need for Standards is Urgent Example: Smart Meters $40 - $50 billion dollar deployment nationwide Underway now Rapid technology evolution Absence of firm standards Source: Congressional Research Service Report 4

Example: Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle – Grid Interface 8 SAE J2847 (communication) SAE J1772 (connector) IEEE 1547 (distributed energy interconnection) ANSI/NEMA C12 (Meter) NFPA (National Electric Code) Additional standards will be needed for: communications/Information protocols for charge management, power injection management, operations and maintenance, metering, roaming. Coordination is required among several standards bodies UL (Enclosures) IEEE (National Electric Safety Code)

NIST Three Phase Plan 9 PHASE 1 Identify an initial set of existing consensus standards and develop a roadmap to fill gaps PHASE 1 Identify an initial set of existing consensus standards and develop a roadmap to fill gaps PHASE 2 Establish public/private Standards Panel to provide ongoing recommendations for new/revised standards PHASE 2 Establish public/private Standards Panel to provide ongoing recommendations for new/revised standards PHASE 3 Testing and Certification Framework PHASE 3 Testing and Certification Framework MarchSeptember

Release 1.0 Standards Identified for NIST Interoperability Framework Following the April Smart Grid Interoperability workshop, NIST deemed that sufficient consensus has been achieved on 16 initial standards On May 18, NIST announced intention to identify these standards in the interoperability framework following 30 day comment period. NIST’s announcement recognized that some of these standards will require further development and many additional standards will be needed. NIST will identify additional standards for inclusion on a rolling basis 10 StandardApplication AMI-SEC System Security Requirements Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) and Smart Grid end-to-end security ANSI C12.19/MC1219Revenue metering information model BACnet ANSI ASHRAE /ISO Building automation DNP3Substation and feeder device automation IEC / TASE.2Inter-control center communications IEC 61850Substation automation and protection IEC 61968/61970Application level energy management system interfaces IEC Parts 1-8Information security for power system control operations IEEE C37.118Phasor measurement unit (PMU) communications IEEE 1547Physical and electrical interconnections between utility and distributed generation (DG) IEEE Security for intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) NERC CIP Cyber security standards for the bulk power system NIST Special Publication (SP) , NIST SP Cyber security standards and guidelines for federal information systems, including those for the bulk power system Open Automated Demand Response (Open ADR) Price responsive and direct load control OpenHANHome Area Network device communication, measurement, and control ZigBee/HomePlug Smart Energy Profile Home Area Network (HAN) Device Communications and Information Model

We Need A Standards Roadmap Capabilities Priorities Reference Model Standards Release Plan Responsibilities Governance Testing and Certification 11

Roadmap Focus Areas FERC-identified priority applications: –Demand Response –Wide-Area Situational Awareness –Electric Storage –Electric Transportation Additional priority applications: –Advanced Metering Infrastructure –Distribution Grid, including Distributed Energy Resource Integration Cross-cutting priorities –Cybersecurity –A GSC High Interest Subject area –Data networking 12

EPRI Report: Key Gaps and Issues Over 80 candidate existing standards identified 70 Standards gaps and issues identified Some key items: –Need for smart meter software upgradeability standard –Understanding RF interference issues for unlicensed band communications –Pricing information model –Open access protocol for energy usage information –Interface to grid for energy storage (in IEEE 1547) –Standard demand response signals –… 13

Next Steps: Plan to Fill Gaps NIST to organized a workshop in early August – focus on SDO roles/responsibilities to fill gaps NIST Roadmap to be published mid-September SDOs are anticipated to expedite the work on identified standards gaps.

End of Phase 1: September 2009 Smart Grid Interoperability Standards Framework Release
