Automated DR and OpenADR Automated DR Fully-automated signaling from a utility, ISO, RTO, or other appropriate entity to provide automated connectivity to customer end- use control systems, devices, and strategies. Does not require full automation on the customer end. OpenADR Open and interoperable information exchange model and emerging Smart Grid standard. OpenADR standardizes the message format used for AutoDR so that dynamic price and reliability signals can be delivered uniformly and interoperably among utilities, ISOs, and energy management and control systems. While previously deployed AutoDR systems are automated, they are not standardized or interoperable. Source: OpenADR Alliance, www.oadr.orgwww.oadr.org

OpenADR Schema  OpenADR created own schema –References elements from EI 1.0 –Created own xsd files –Subset of EI standard  EI Standard –Implements more than DR –Market-based implementations exist  OpenADR 2.0 –One implementation of DR –More restrictive than EI

13. 13 © 2015 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved. OpenADR Standard  Services are limited implementations of what’s offered by Energy Interoperation v1.0 –EiEvent, EiOpt, EiReport, EiRegisterParty  Messages exchanged with services are XML-based, defined by schema  OpenADR schemas validate against Energy Interop v1.0 schemas
