OSGP - A Modern Standard For A Modern Grid Smart Grid is More Than Just Smart Meters Designed From Day 1 For a Networked World Focus On Efficiency, Reliability, Scalability, Expandability

Now: Electricity Is Essential To All We Do Reliable supply is an economic and national security concern Concerns over C02 Move to renewable, intermittent sources of supply Distributed generation Electrical Vehicles Service quality, cash collection, non-technical losses, Grid topology insight, loadcontrol LV, asset management ► Meeting these demands requires a smarter grid & change in behavior Need to combine information, manage and control, while minimizing datatraffic, communication & storage.
