14. The Future for Standards
The Vision
“Whichever way
the ball bounces
down the glacier;
the industries,
policy makers and
users can be sure,
even as it contracts
and reshapes, the
standards are
cohesive and fit for
purpose.”

15. The Future for Standards
For Energy, Energy Efficiency and Sustainability
• Lots of new technologies to have standards
developed.
• Development of Smart Grid Protocols, Standards and
integration strategies.
• Standards for bringing change of use of technologies,
such as, common connectors for small appliances,
which will probably mean less chargers left on,
common electric car plugs and battery packs.
• Standards for measuring and demonstrating
performance and conformity rules.

17. Summary
• We start developing suites of standards “once” and
appropriately.
• We are smarter about holistic standards development
• The Standards provide the support mechanisms for
implementing the seismic energy shifts the world
needs.
• Standards are part of the initial development process,
whether for products, services or policy makers.
• We think Globally and Holistically before developing
standards.
• Support Networks and Clusters are supported from
the top down and funded appropriately.
