Smart Grid Interoperability Panel orchestrates the work behind power grid modernization
SGIP NARRATIVE PROCESS provides a framework for orchestrating all Smart Grid stakeholders to accelerate standards harmonization and interoperability
SGIP’s Role • 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
Enabling Interoperable Solutions • 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
SGIP Reduces Risks and Costs • 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 standardsinformation and practical, hands-on knowledge about deployments from industry experts.
Technical Trends Global Smart Grid • 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
Regulatory Barriers for 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
SGIP Supporting Opportunities • 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 lnteligentelniciative(CII) and ICONTEC • National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology of Brazil (Inmetro) • SGIP International Activities Committee
