Subject: Should ebMS TC join OASIS Blue?
I'd like to suggest to the ebMS
TC that we consider aligning ourselves with the OASIS Blue member
section, and is
composed of a number of OASIS TC's working together to "capitalize on, profile and extend existing
electronic commerce and data exchange standards" to "permit interoperable smart energy grids, and those
plugged into them,
to advance sustainability and economic opportunity, by applying lessons
from the Internet and electronic commerce to networks of energy use,
demand and generation." OASIS Blue specifically calls out ebXML and Web services standards like WS-Security as solution standards Smart Grid interoperability and security. The Smart Grid would be a huge market for ebMS and is the current focus of much US funding by the administration. A short white paper of the OASIS Blue initiative can be found at http://www.oasis-open.org/resources/white-papers/blue/ OASIS Blue intends to synergize a range of OASIS standards to basically bootstrap the informational interoperability of the Smart Grid using the proven key eCommerce standards such as:
From the white paper.. To truly respond to the grid, building systems must become responsive to their occupants. oBIX and other OASIS specifications will enable competitive development of software to mediate between building-based systems and the intelligent power grid. Open standards are the way to incorporate business needs, household needs, and other information into energy decisions in an interoperable manner,creating new markets. |
