Subject: RE: [energyinterop] Is silence consent?
Some thoughts on Ed's 3/1/10 questions: •
Ref Q2: we agreed to standardize DR signals, which to
me takes the message set from OpenADR and adds a few more with the goal of a
set of generalized messages that matches the large majority of existing DR
programs. Communicating a price is one option. •
Q7: I thought integrity signals were the DR messages.
I'm not sure what grid safety signals are. Toby? •
2nd Q6--I think we need to pay attention to
PAP 7 and probably other efforts marching forward on DER integration and think
about what needs to happen in EnergyInterop. Different subject--thoughts following last week's call. Some
concepts/dimensions from the Collaborative Interactions vs. NOT-collaborative
discussion (and why it’s complicated trying to pin this down): •
Local vs. remote management (in the facility vs.
utility control) •
DLC and DR where the utility has contractually
guaranteed response amount vs. no guaranteed response •
DR bid vs. price response. •
M&V versus not •
Mandatory vs. voluntary contracts •
AMI vs Internet channel •
Utility remote DLC versus virtual DLC (utility owned
in-home EMS, e.g., the PCT) •
Energy Interop vs. SEP •

is the PAP energy interop is addressing. Edward G.

energyinterop@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: [energyinterop] Is silence consent? All, I think we need more focus in energy interop. From the NIST Twiki the purpose of PAP 03 is to Define a framework and common terminology for: 1.Price communication, 2.Grid safety or integrity signals, 3.DER support, and 4.Other signals and/or an extensibility mechanism. I have several questions and some answers. Happy to
listen to other answers and questions. First question: Shall we focus our effort on the smart
grid with interval metering or the dumb grid with cumulative monthly
metering? My answer, assume interval metering or we are taking on
too much complexity in our document with little added value. Second question: Do we begin with price
communication for the electricity (or gas) commodity or do we ignore price communication
for the commodity and go to directly to specify signals to reduce load from an
undefined base? My answer, clearly we have to begin with price
communication for the commodity. That is, we need to communicate the
price from a regulated or competitive retail supplier to the end customer. The price should be : (1) real-time price for any amount of energy, or (2) forward prices for forward commitments of energy for
specified intervals that can be added up to meet the desired forward
purchases of the customer with any residual purchase or sale at real-time prices,
or (3) any amount of energy at forward contracted prices
that is independent of real-time price or any further transactions (this is
actually an option to purchase energy). Third question: Shall we facilitate bidding into
wholesale markets by retail customers for load reductions from the base in (2)
above? My answer is yes since this is no different from the
buying and selling in forward transactions referenced above for the Second
question. ( pricing communication (2) ) Fourth question: Shall we facilitate peak load
pricing and rebates? My answer is yes, as this is just another forward
purchase or sale and is included just like the answer to the third question. Fifth question: Shall we facilitate offers by
customers to reduce or increase forward purchases. Yes, as this is included just like the answers to the
third and fourth questions. Sixth question: Shall we facilitate options for the
retailer or ISO to buy back at prescribed (high) prices (a call option by the
retailer? And shall we facilitate options for the retailer or ISO to put back
at prescribed (low) prices (a put option by the retailer? Similar
options can be described for the customers? My answer is yes, but this is not high priority. Seventh question: What are grid safety and integrity
signals? My answer: These have nothing to do with price and should
be restricted to signals to the capable meters to 1. disconnect from the grid 2. prevent backflow to the grid 3. limit power consumed from the grid or provided to the
grid under emergency only conditions to protect the grid equipment. A separate category could be notifications for voluntary
actions by groups of customers. Sixth question: How should we provide for DER support? My answer is that we use the structure described
above. No other changes are needed. Seventh question: What are other signals? My answer is that I don't know and the above seems
adequate. Regards, Ed Edward G. Cazalet, Ph.D. 101 First Street, Suite 552 Los Altos, CA 94022 650-949-5274 cell: 408-621-2772 ed@cazalet.com www.cazalet.com -----Original Message----- From: Toby Considine [mailto:tobyconsidine@gmail.com] On

energyinterop@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: [energyinterop] Is silence consent? Toby, I think that many of us could use more elaboration on
what you have written in your email. Like Rish, I am unsure to what FIX
and CAP refer. Also unclear if bidding/contracts are going to be the only
mechanism for DR signal exchange. This seems ill suited to smaller
consumers or to handling grid emergencies. -Evan Evan K. Wallace Manufacturing Systems Integration Division NIST --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the
