Interoperability standards concepts

Interoperability: The capability of two or more networks, systems, devices, applications, or components to externally exchange and readily use information securely and effectively. [source: SCC21 P2030 pres]

IEEE 2030-2011 Std. Guide for Smart Grid Interoperability of Energy Technology and Information Technology Operation with the Electric Power System (EPS), End-Use Applications, and Loads.

• This guide considers three high-level perspectives from an architectural viewpoint:

IEEE 2030-2011 Standard

Communications technology interoperability (CT-IAP)

IEEE 2030-2011 Standard

[source: IEEE Std 2030-2011]

IEEE 2030.2-2015 Std. Guide for the Interoperability of Energy Storage Systems Integrated with the Electric Power Infrastructure

• Provides guidelines for energy storage discrete or

hybrid systems (ESS) that are integrated with the

electric power infrastructure, including end-use

applications and loads.

• This guide also presents a methodology that can be

used for most common ESS projects to describe the

power system, communications, and information

technology (IT) interoperability architecture

perspectives (IAPs).

• Provides the templates that can be used to develop

requirements for an ESS project.

• This guide builds upon IEEE Std 2030-2011.
