OpenADR and NIST Smart Grid Roadmap Conceptual Model

Regulatory Approval Process

Develop requirements by SDOs and other organizations

SDO Updates Standard NIST reviews / passes to FERC for

consideration OpenADR v2.0 FERC FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission) determines whether to consider

EISA (Energy Independence and Securities Act

NIST OpenADR 2.0

FERC

Develop requirements by SDOs and other organizations

SDO Updates Standard NIST reviews / passes to

FERC for consideration

What is the OpenADR Alliance?

California-based nonprofit 501(c)(6) corporation

Member-based organization comprised of industry stakeholders interested in fostering OpenADR adoption

Leverages Smart Grid-related standards from OASIS, UCA and NAESB

Supports development, testing, and deployment of commercial OpenADR

Enables stakeholders to participate in automated DR, dynamic pricing, and electricity grid reliability

OpenADR Mission

The mission of the OpenADR Alliance is to foster

the development, adoption, and compliance

of the Open Automated Demand Response

(OpenADR) standards through collaboration,

education, training, testing, and certification.

Technical Committee Priorities

1. Complete OpenADR 2.0 specification feature sets

2. Define the policy framework for compliance (refer UCA CPRM and SGIP IPRM)

3. Plan for certification and compliance program1. Complete OpenADR 2.0 specification test cases

2. Test procedures

3. Test tools

4. Test labs

4. Support OpenADR compliant development (e.g., test bed databases, plug-fests)

5. Participate and contribute in SGIP SGTCC IPRM process.

6. Evaluate and support technical harmonization

7. Facilitate transition of OpenADR 1.0 to 2.0

OpenADR Planned Activities

Develop a conformance, certification, and testing process/programs

Collaborate with SDOs and user groups for the continued enhancements of the OpenADR standard

Collaborate with government agencies to expand the adoption of OpenADR

Develop an OpenADR marketing portal targeted to customers that may be interested in participating in an automated DR program

Conduct and provide education and training sessions for system integrators, control vendors, and others to enable them to install “OpenADR-ready”

Establish centralized development and documentation related to OpenADR deployments

Develop programs to allow vendors to develop, test, and demonstrate their ability to integrate with OpenADR signals
