1. Document number 1 CIM Gas extension idea Ivo Kuijlaars, on behalf of Nico Vlug DNV KEMA October 2011

2.  Some Dutch multi-utility DSO’s see the ‘power and gas silos’ disappear rapidly and decided to add a gas-network to their CIM-based information-model for power.  Use cases: - construction and maintenance of underground infrastructures - the aim is to combine work on infrastructures to avoid inefficiencies and nuisance for residents - business process integration - asset management, GIS, operations, customer contacts  CIM Gas extension overlaps with CIM Power at - geographical location, addresses, diagrams, connectivity, currency, engineering units, market, etc. 2 CIM Gas extension: WHY?

3.  First step: - Will WG13/14 support the relation with a CIM for Gas, with ‘touch-points’ (interfaces) to CIM?  Second step: - What can be done by WG13/14 to provide guidelines describing the addition of another infrastructure to the CIM?  Third step: - Creation of a task force or a new (ISO?) working group - To define use cases - To review these use cases, in collaboration with WG13/14 - To make recommendations for a way forward  Idea: - Make distinction in generic parts of the model by replacing ‘power’ with ‘utility’ 3 CIM Gas extension: HOW?

4.  Question : - What action can we put on the agenda for WG13/14? 4 CIM Gas extension: Action
