OASIS Charter Submission Discuss

  • 1.  (energy-interop) What relationship to DOE OE?

    Posted 04-23-2009 08:33 
    I read the proposed charter for the Energy Interoperation TC but I don't see 
any mention of the Department of Energy's Office of Electricity Delivery and 
Energy Reliability. That office received $4.5 billion from the American 
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. From their website:

"As outlined in the legislation, these funds are an investment in a 
nationwide plan to modernize the electric grid, enhance security of U.S. 
energy infrastructure and ensure reliable electricity delivery to meet 
growing demand. This represents a significant increase in the Department of 
Energy's investment in grid modernization and reflects a recognition that a 
more efficient and integrated grid is integral to achieving President Obama's 
goals to significantly increase the use of renewable energy resources and to 
improve the Nation's economic future."

Could someone clarify the relationship of the OASIS effort with this DOE 
office's activities to develop the smart grid? Is NIST the connection?

Energy Interoperation fits well with the Modern Grid Initiative from
the DOE/OE; the Modern Grid work has a number of similarities with the
work of the GridWise Architecture Council, with which this charter fits
well.

    
Demand Response (DR, the last two letters of AutoDR, the TC's base
specification) is very important to DOE and FERC in the broader context
of the smarter grid, and helps (with proper aggregation) to enable
treating of curtailment resources as (in effect) alternate generation
resources.

    
I don't have all the references to hand right now, but there is
definitely a relationship there as well as to the DR aspects of the
NIST Smart Grid Standards Roadmap project, in progress.

    
Excellent point; the section 2 material should be updated to reflect
this.

    
Thanks!
