DESCRIPTION
State and local regulators came together on this Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) webinar to discuss key important issue to them. SGIP Member regulators discussed how they apply their SGIP experiences to improve on-the-job performance by saving valuable real-time Commission resources and better serve their constituents. Participating Member State Commission representatives highlighted specific work of SGIP committees and sub-committees where involvement by state commissioners and their staff have yielded high impact results including the Business & Policy Domain Expert Working Group; Smart Grid Implementation Methods Committee; Smart Grid Cybersecurity Committee Privacy Subgroup; and the Priority Action Plan (PAP-20) for Green Button Energy Services Provider Interface Evolution. Panelists were Commissioner Haque, Ohio Public Utilities Commission, Amanda Stallings, Staffer Ohio Public Utilities Commission, Chris Villarreal, Senior Regulatory Analyst, California Public Utilities Commission and Patrick Hudson, Smart Grid Section Manager, Michigan Public Service Commission. The session was moderated by Commissioner Nick Wagner, Iowa Utilities Board and SGIP Board Director representing the Stakeholders Group for State and Local Regulators (Category 19). In addition, learn how the activities SGIP members pursue have important state and federal policy implications, such as: Preparing guidance for the protection of consumer privacy and consumer access to electricity usage data; Developing cybersecurity guidelines for standards that may be incorporated in power system reliability rules and critical infrastructure guidance; Highlighting the utilities’ experiences, benefits and issues in implementation of interoperable Smart Grid systems; and Identifying performance and reliability requirements for Smart Grid communications.

Overview• CPUC has participated in SGIP since its inception by NIST, and
continues as a Participating Member
• CPUC has statutory obligation to consider standards associated with Smart Grid as developed by groups, including SGIP (Public Utilities Code Sec. 8362)
• CPUC actively participates in several Working Groups and Priority Action Plans:– PAP 9/10: Access to information– PAP 18: SEP 1.0/2.0 Transition Plan– PAP 20: Green Button– PAP 22: EV Submetering– Business and Policy DEWG– Distributed Renewables, Generators, and Storage DEWG– Implementation Methods Committee– Smart Grid Cybersecurity Committee– Smart Grid Cybersecurity Committee, Privacy Subcommittee
• Standards support interoperability, which helps lower costs
Green Button• Underlying standard, OpenADE, developed by SGIP PAP 10 and 20.
– NAESB REQ 21• CPUC de facto adopted standard in 2013 directing utilities to
implement Green Button Connect My Data• CPUC staff participated in PAP 10 and 20 efforts to
– understand the standard itself – provide input into the development to reflect state goals– Work with utilities to make it interoperable across the state– CPUC staff continues to participate in the continued updating of the
standard and interaction between SDO and SGIP
26
Electric Vehicles• CPUC staff participates in PAP 22’s working group on
submetering.• This working group was formed in part to help address the
technical requirements needed to meet the CPUC’s electric vehicle submetering requirement.
• The group brings together a range of stakeholders with expertise in metering technology, telemetry, electric vehicles, vehicle charging, and utility requirements.
• The outputs from this group have been used to help develop temporary submetering performance and communication requirements that will be used in CPUC submetering pilots that begin in Spring 2014.
27
DRGS
• California upgrading interconnection rules for distributed generation
• Also addressing issues associated with Smart Inverters.
• DRGS, Subgroup B recently released White Paper on DER use cases and interoperability
• Also in initial stages of discussing issues associated with microgrids and their impact on the distribution grid.
