13. Member Engagement Feedback #2
• Help us stay abreast in the Smart Grid market
– How does this standard impact the market? When?
– What influences the regulatory push?
– What’s going to make the standards impactful in the
market and to our customers?
– How can we get more business people involved
• Provide a “Timetable” of how the standards
impact our company
– customer demand, regulator mandate, utility needs
• We need the big picture view of interoperability in
the Smart Grid to grow the businesses and
markets
14. 2014 Highlights #1
• Smart Grid Cybersecurity Committee (SGCC)
– Collaborate with DOE, FERC, DHS, DoD and NIST to
develop a NIST Smart Grid Supply Chain Awareness
Guide
• Smart Grid Testing and Certification Committee
(SGTCC)
– Build a directory of all industry test programs relative
to Smart Grid standards
• Smart Grid Architecture Committee (SGAC)
– Launched Transactive Energy working party (Business
to Grid DEWG) ‐ near completion on its Transactive
Energy Retail Applications white paper
16. SGIP Special Projects & Deliverables
• Interoperability Implementation Experiences (IIE)
– List of implemented Smart Grid applications
– Identifying key standards implemented
• Interoperability Mapping Tool (IMT)
– Port, customize and operate an interactive, online tool
– Include SGIP’s CoS, plus work of the DEWGs and PAPs
• Business Impact of Standards Analysis Services
– Develop and apply a methodology to assess business
impact
– Calculate benefits and costs of interoperability experiences
• Educational & Informational Services
– Based on the results derived from IIE and IMT programs
– Identify the most relevant “vectors of influence”

42. Defining Vectors of Influence
• Vector: a measurement that has magnitude and
direction
• Influence: the power to cause changes without
directly forcing them to happen
• SGIP Vectors of Influence:
– Identifies the size or extent of the impact of a given
standard
– Determines the factors that influence the timing and
direction of a given standard
– Identifies any barriers to implementation and what
business functions could be impacted by the standard
