Objectives

• Connect into and influence Smart Grid Standards development efforts

• Promote interoperability of interconnected technologies

• Enable future connectivity and market participation within the Smart Grid

• Mitigate future incompatibilities and stranding of technology investments

• Cyber security of the transmission & distribution grid

• Maintain privacy/confidentiality of energy information

Challenges

• Adoption and regulatory oversight of technical standards

• Utility interests must be fairly represented in the NIST/SGIP process

• Standards development efforts are in parallel with some deployments

• Commitment of technical experts to cover the many groups and

overlapping focus areas!

How do we assess the level of

engagement in standards?

Active involvement

• Criteria: potential for significant impact to DTE Energy (financial, policy compliance, infrastructure development, interoperability, security etc) and there is inadequate utility industry representation on the committee

• Responsibilities: active and contributing member with voting rights, regular attendance, advocate and champion DTE Energy positions

Monitoring

• Criteria: no immediate impact but potential for future impact to DTE Energy (financial, policy compliance, infrastructure development, interoperability, security etc)

• Responsibilities: committee member with voting rights, regular attendance, monitor for impact to DTE Energy positions

No active involvement

• Criteria: no immediate or future impact to DTE Energy (financial, policy compliance, infrastructure development, interoperability, security etc)

Smart Grid Standards focus areas

Industry-wide collaboration

State Level

• MPSC Smart Grid Collaborative

• NARUC resolutions

• Smart Grid deployments

Federal Level

• FERC proceedings

• DOE & OSTP proceedings
