IEEE Guide for Smart Grid Interoperability of Energy Technology and Information Technology Operation with the Electric Power Systems (EPS), End-Use Applications, and Loads
General
IEEE Std 2030 provides alternative approaches and best practices for achieving smart grid interoperability. It is the first all-encompassing IEEE standard on smart grid interoperability providing a roadmap directed at establishing the framework in developing an IEEE national and international body of standards based on cross-cutting technical disciplines in power applications and information exchange and control through communications. IEEE Std 2030 establishes the smart grid interoperability reference model (SGIRM) and provides a knowledge base addressing terminology, characteristics, functional performance and evaluation criteria, and the application of engineering principles for smart grid interoperability of the electric power system with end-use applications and loads. A system of systems approach to smart grid interoperability lays the foundation on which IEEE Std 2030 establishes the SGIRM as a design tool that inherently allows for extensibility, scalability, and upgradeability. The IEEE 2030 SGIRM defines three integrated architectural perspectives: power systems, communications technology, and information technology. Additionally, it defines design tables and the classification of data flow characteristics necessary for interoperability. Guidelines for smart grid interoperability, design criteria, and reference model applications are addressed with emphasis on functional interface identification, logical connections and data flows, communications and linkages, digital information management, and power generation usage.
Scope
Scope of proposed standard:
This document provides guidelines for smart grid interoperability. This guide provides a knowledge base addressing terminology, characteristics, functional performance and evaluation criteria, and the application of engineering principles for smart grid interoperability of the electric power system with end use applications and loads. The revision will focus on updating the information related to the distribution, transmission, service provider and customer domains. Additionally, the application of the IEEE Smart Grid Interoperability Reference Model (SGIRM) framework may be simplified based on practical experience.

Purpose
Purpose:
This document provides guidelines in understanding and defining smart grid interoperability of the electric power system with end-use applications and loads. Integration of energy technology and information and communications technology is necessary to achieve seamless operation for electric generation, delivery, and end-use benefits to permit two way power flow with communication and control. Progress has been made in many areas that could provide a basis for updating the definition of Domains, Entities, Interfaces and Data Flows. This Updated knowledge base is needed as a key element in grid architectural designs and operation to promote a more reliable and flexible electric power system.generation, delivery, and end-use benefits to permit two-way power flow with communication and control. Interconnection and intra-facing frameworks and strategies with design definitions are addressed in this guide, providing guidance in expanding the current knowledge base. This expanded knowledge is a key element in grid architectural designs and operation to promote a more reliable and flexible EPS.
