Introduction
to IEC 61968-9: How a New International Standard Can Enable US Smart-Grid
Initiatives by David Haynes
This presentation discusses a few of the Smart Grid
goals which have been elevated by a number of parties, and cites the need for
standards to integrate numerous utility back-office applications. The Common
Information Model (CIM) has been in wide use for SCADA and Energy Management
applications for more than a decade. A recently released standard IEC 61968-9
now extends the CIM to define messages for the exchange of information between
energy distribution applications such as AMI, MDM, OMS, CIS, and Asset
Management. In addition to citing a number of the smart grid goals, this
presentation offers an in-depth look at the use of 61968-9 to achieve some of
these specific goals.
