Informative Background on the Interoperability Requirements in IEEE Std 1547-2018
This NREL report summarizes the interoperability requirements in the revised Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard 1547-2018 (IEEE Std 1547-2018). Additionally, the report provides context and related background concepts for applying advanced interoperability capabilities. This report provides a reference guide to the new capabilities and requirements listed in Clause 10 of IEEE Std 1547-2018 as well as considerations for their use. The report covers topics related to the utilization of interoperability such as: Communications protocols, Utility requirements for monitoring and controlling, Bulk power system data needs, Aggregator applications, Screening criteria.
