1. Accelerating the Smart Grid Globally www.sgip.org info@sgip.org

2. orchestrates the work behind power grid modernization

3. NARRATIVE PROCESS SGIP

4.  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

5.  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

6.  Optimizes resources and time  Avoids proprietary vendor lock-in  Helps build technology roadmaps  Simplifies decision making SGIP is a collaborative, transparent, and trusted forum to share standards information and practical, hands-on knowledge about deployments from industry experts.

7.  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

8.  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

9.  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)  SGIP International Activities Committee
