NIST SmartGrid Update Paul Myrda Technical Executive Power Systems Engineering Research Center August 10, 2009
Overview NIST was mandated by Congress in the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 to coordinate the development of a framework of protocols and model standards to achieve interoperability of the Smart Grid. The initial set of standards and specifications listed in the next slide for inclusion in Release 1.0 of the Smart Grid Interoperability Standards Framework. Release 1.0 is a work in progress. It is not complete, nor is it exclusionary. Existing standards that do not appear in this first installment to Release 1.0 have not been eliminated from consideration. Moreover, standards currently on the list ultimately may not be included. 2
NIST Three Phase Plan PHASE 1 Recognize a set of initial existing consensus standards and develop a roadmap to fill gaps PHASE 2 Establish public/private Standards Panel to provide ongoing recommendations for new/revised standards to be recognized by NIST PHASE 3 Testing and Certification Framework March 2009 2010 September 3 3
April 28-29 Workshop Discussed Architecture and Requirements Evaluated existing standards Consensus on Low Hanging Fruit (16 standards) Identified issues 4 4
Workshop I Tracks Track A - Business, Markets, and Policy Track B - Architecture Track C - Security Track D - Central and Distributed Generation and Storage Track E - Distribution System DER Management Track F - Transmission Substation and Wide Area Monitoring Track G - Consumer Domains 5

Report to NIST on the Smart Grid Interoperability Standards Roadmap This document contains material gathered and refined by the contractor using its technical expertise. This deliverable is not a formally reviewed and approved NIST publication. Rather, it is one of many inputs into the ongoing NISTcoordinated roadmapping process. 11

Workshop 3 Based on the results of the Interim Roadmap in May, NIST has identified a set of priority actions from the recommendations of standards efforts on which to begin immediate work. In order to facilitate this, Priority Action Plans are being developed to help in this process. Note that it is the defined goal of these priority action plans to "plan work" and not to necessarily make progress on the implementation of solutions to the priority actions. As such, the plans are focused on defining the problem, establishing the objectives, and, identifying the likely standards bodies and users associations that would be pertinent to the standards modifications, enhancements, and harmonization required. 13
Priority Action Plans (PAPs) Illustrative Versions The key experts in these groups will be explicitly invited to the August 3-4 Standards Workshop, although, space permitting, others are welcome. The goal of the August Workshop is "to develop consensus for and to assign responsibilities to entities to address issues identified in the Revised Roadmap". 14

Our primary goal at the end of the August 3,4 workshop is for each PAP to have been advanced to the state that specific tasks are defined and subscribed to by representatives of pertinent SDOs that can standardize the solutions. 16
Key Workshop Take-Aways (1/2) Many SDOs involved in Smart Grid Even more standards Comments that this is the first time many SDOs are talking to one another Participation by diverse groups provides better solutions Communication and coordination required and in progress Still problems involved with common terminologies First time IETF community is talking directly with the smart grid community 17 17
Key Workshop Take-Aways (2/2) PAPs are providing focus and ownership of tasks Collaboration is essential SDOs stepping up PAP key tasks defined, responsible parties assigned and most key dates set Aggressive timelines International harmonization is being worked Availability of standards for review is being addressed 18 18
Next Steps (1/3) Comment Period for EPRI Roadmap Document ended July 30 NIST is now working to evolve EPRI Report to NIST into the NIST Smart Grid Framework Comments from the Federal Register will be incorporated Output from this workshop will be incorporated NIST Framework will continue to focus on FERC-identified priority applications: Demand Response Wide-Area Situational Awareness Electric Storage Electric Transportation 19
Next Steps (2/3) Along with continued focus on additional priority applications: Advanced Metering Infrastructure Distribution Grid, including Distributed Energy Resource Integration Cross-cutting priorities Cyber-security Data networking 20
Next Steps (3/3) NIST Framework Document will contain: Context and purpose Conceptual Reference Model Expanded List of Release 1.0 Interoperability Standards Actions and Timelines for Priority Action Plans (PAPs) Using input from this PAP workshop This document will provide the baseline for the SG Standards Panel 21
