(June - Sept 08) Review the current state of Smart Grid related standards and interoperability and present this in an overview Landscape Map tied to a detailed standards knowledge base. This will become a platform for developing consensus on where interoperability gaps exist and priorities for addressing those gaps. (Sept 23-25) Present this information at GridWeek and invite participation in a NIST Interoperability Standards Workshop at GridInterop (Nov 11) that will be focused on evaluating a roadmap for addressing standards gaps and path toward interoperability. NIST is also working to develop domain expert working groups to help with Gridweek and the workshop as well as to guide and sustain action on standards development and harmonization activities.
