IEEE 1547 and 2030 Standards for Distributed Energy Resources Interconnection and Interoperability with the Electricity Grid

Abstract

These partnerships also include technology development that enables grid modernization and distributed energy resources (DER) advancement, especially renewable energy systems integration with the grid. Through DOE/NREL and industry support of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards development, the IEEE 1547 series of standards has helped shape the way utilities and other businesses have worked together to realize increasing amounts of DER interconnected with the distribution grid. And more recently, the IEEE 2030 series of standards is helping to further realize greater implementation of communications and information technologies that provide interoperability solutions for enhanced integration of DER and loads with the grid. For these standards development partnerships, for approximately $1 of federal funding, industry partnering has contributed $5. In this report, the status update is presented for the American National Standards IEEE 1547 and IEEE 2030 series of standards. A short synopsis of the history of the 1547 standards is first presented, then the current status and future direction of the ongoing standards development activities are discussed.

How Infrastructure Can Become Reborn by Becoming Born Robust for the Critical Infrastructure Protection and Recovery Working Group

“… Figure 5 and Figure 6. Packages for HFAC microgrid (PTC 2016b;Etemadi 2013, 22;Basso 2014) (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. n.d.).…”

Application of mathematical morphology for power quality improvement in microgrid

“…The integration of the PV system into the grid adversely influences the stability, power quality, and reliability of the system. Therefore, for reliable and secure power supply, different countries followed some specific standards as presented in Basso . Using the guidelines, different control solutions are presented in the literature with single‐stage and two‐stage inverter operation.…”

Integrated Operation of Distributed Resources to Enhance Frequency Regulation in an Isolated Microgrid Environment

“…A standalone microgrid needs precise control of the frequency since most of the loads connected are of induction motor type. [4] suggests and provides the standards for providing ancillary services like frequency regulation and spinning reserve management. Section 3.2 of [5] discusses the frequency tolerance of the grid when the load or power production changes suddenly.…”
