3. doc.: IEEE 802.11-11/0506r2 Submission SGIP Announcement – April 26 Smart Grid Panel Agrees on Standards for Wireless Communication, Meter Upgrades From NIST Tech Beat: April 26, 2011 Contact: Chad Boutin 301-975-4261 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 301-975-4261 end_of_the_skype_highlightingChad Boutin The governing board of the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) has voted in favor of a new standard and a set of guidelines important for making the long-planned “smart” electricity grid a reality. The two documents address the need for wireless communications among grid-connected devices as well as the ability to upgrade household electricity meters as the Smart Grid evolves. The documents were identified by the SGIP along with other standards development projects called “Priority Action Plans,” or PAPs, that describe critical needs for realizing an energy-efficient, modern power grid with seamlessly interoperable parts. The SGIP, a group of public and private organizations, was created by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to coordinate development of consensus-based Smart Grid standards. Almost every house has an electricity meter, and the “Meter Upgradeability Standard” (PAP 0) is designed to ensure that the new generation of smart electricity meters does not become obsolete. According to Paul Molitor, Industry Director for Smart Grid at the National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association, PAP 0 aims to “future-proof” these meters. “More than 50 million houses across the country will need new meters for the Smart Grid to function, and PAP 0 will ensure that this substantial upfront investment of time and money is protected,” Molitor said. “PAP 0 makes it possible to upgrade any meter as the standards evolve, and to do so remotely.” The “Guidelines for Assessing Wireless Communications for Smart Grid Applications” (PAP 2) covers standards necessary for wireless communications between all devices connected to the Smart Grid—not just the meters on your house, but the wide range of components in generation plants, substations and transmission systems necessary to keep energy flowing among the myriad points on the grid. “Technologies like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth were not designed with Smart Grid in mind,” says NIST’s Nada Golmie. “What PAP 2 does is ensure that any technologies that we use—whether off-the-shelf or not—will provide the features the grid needs.” Golmie says that—to give one example—there can be far less tolerance of delays between transmission and reception or interruption of signals among grid devices than there is among general data communication devices, such as cell phones. PAP 2’s goal is to specify wireless technology performance that is grid-worthy. “We would like vendors and standard-setting organizations to become aware of the features a grid-worthy technology will have,” she says. “We’re trying to help facilitate a conversation between technology developers and grid operators, to ensure they are all on the same page. It’s hard to do that without hard numbers about how devices must perform, and PAP 2 provides these numbers.” For more details, see the NIST April 19, 2011, release “Smart Grid Panel Agrees on Standards and Guidelines for Wireless Communication, Meter Upgrades” at www.nist.gov/smartgrid/smartgrid-041911.cfm.“Smart Grid Panel Agrees on Standards and Guidelines for Wireless Communication, Meter Upgrades”www.nist.gov/smartgrid/smartgrid-041911.cfm

5. doc.: IEEE 802.11-11/0506r2 Submission PAP18 Abstract Abstract: This action plan focuses on developing specific requirements that must be met to allow for the coexistence of SEP 1.x and 2.0 and to support the migration of 1.x implementations to 2.0. This effort will not address the issue of whether new deployments should be 1.x or 2.0. That remains a deployment specific issue. The effort assumes 1.x in the field as the starting point. Further, this effort assumes that the meters themselves are capable of running SEP 1.x or 2.0 via remote firmware upgrade. The focus of the effort is on the events leading up to and impact of such an upgrade. The primary outputs of the PAP are 1) a white paper that summarizes the key issues with migration and makes specific recommendations and 2) a requirements document that will be submitted to the ZigBee Alliance for consideration in developing the technology specific recommendations, solutions, and any required changes to the SEP 2.0 specifications themselves. http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid/bin/view/SmartGrid/PAP18SEP1To2TransitionAndCoexistence

Alongside the Government’s response to the Smart Meters Prospectus consultation, DECC has set out the overall strategy and timetable for the installation of 53 million smart meters in 30 million homes and businesses across Great Britain, estimated to have a net benefit to the nation of £7.3 billion over the next twenty years. Smart meters will deliver a range of benefits to consumers, energy suppliers and networks providing real time information on energy consumption to help control energy use, save money and reduce emissions. Speaking ahead of his visit today to a technology expo at the SmartLIFE training centre in Cambridge, Secretary of State Chris Huhne said: "In combination with our plans to reform the electricity market and introduce the Green Deal for home and businesses, the rollout of smart meters will help us keep the lights on while reducing emissions and getting the best possible deal for the consumer."

Smart Metering Communications and Data Management Key Government conclusions  DCC should be created as a new licensed entity, responsible for the procurement and contract management of data and communications services that will underpin the end-to-end smart metering system. The Government will run a competitive application process for the DCC licence.  The scope of DCC ‟ s activities and services should be limited initially to those functions that are essential for the effective transfer of smart metering data, including secure communications, access control, scheduled data retrieval and translation services (where necessary). DCC should, at a later date, take on the role of meter point/supplier registration service provider.  Suppliers in the smaller non-domestic sector should not be obliged to use the services of DCC for meters with smart functionality, but may elect to do so. This position will be kept under review.  DCC should be responsible for procuring the necessary equipment and services to provide WAN communications, including the WAN module.  The Government will initiate procurement of service provider contracts in parallel with the DCC licence applications process in order to deliver the early establishment of DCC's services.  DCC should be required to adopt communications contracts associated with compliant meters installed before its services are available, subject to these contracts meeting pre-defined criteria. There should be a limit on the number of contracts that DCC would guarantee to accept, subject to the adoption criteria being met. http://www.decc.gov.uk/Media/viewfile.ashx?FilePath=Consultations/smart-meter-imp-prospectus/1475- smart-metering-imp-response-overview.pdf&filetype=4&minwidth=true

22. doc.: IEEE 802.11-11/0506r2 Submission April 2011 Bruce Kraemer, MarvellSlide 22 SGIP Governing Board Moves Forward on Key Efforts to Advance Interoperability Standards Framework Nashville, TN -- The Governing Board of the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) today took steps that will accelerate progress toward the long-term goal of an interoperable Smart Grid. The Board’s actions relate to the SGIP’s process for identifying and publicizing interoperable standards, as well as the creation of a new Priority Action Plan related to home area networks. In addition, the Governing Board continued to coordinate and strengthen relationships with other standards-related organizations in both the United States and around the world. Since the SGIP’s formal establishment in November 2010, the Governing Board has been building an organizational structure and consensus-based process for the SGIP that will enable the Smart Grid’s many diverse stakeholders to identify, review, and coordinate interoperable standards. Now that several standards are nearing completion of that consensus-based process, the Governing Board discussed a draft document that describes the Catalog of Standards (CoS) process, including its purpose, scope, procedures, and management. The CoS will serve as a compendium of standards, practices, and guidelines considered relevant for the development and deployment of a robust and interoperable Smart Grid. It is anticipated that the catalog will eventually contain hundreds of standards, recommended practices, and guidelines. The CoS will provide a key—but not exclusive—source of input to the NIST process for coordinating the development of a framework of protocols and model standards for an interoperable Smart Grid. The extensive information included for each entry will also be a very useful resource to utilities, manufacturers, regulators, consumers, and other Smart Grid stakeholders. The draft document will be posted online next week (http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid). Following a comment period of 10 business days, the Board will vote on the acceptance of the procedures described in the document.http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid
