10 April, 2014. STARGRID organized two workshops at Hannover Fair, which presented recent progress and current activities related to the European Smart Grid standardization framework.
The first workshop Standardizing the Smart Grid Vision. Is the Smart Grid Standardization Framework ready for the Smart Grid Roll Out? was organized jointly with the CEN-ENELEC-ETSI Smart Grid Coordination Group (SGCG). It presented the recent progress and current activities in the European Smart Grid standardization framework. The workshop presented the results of the SGCG’s recent gap prioritization survey and STARGRID’s stakeholder survey on standardization awareness and perceived gaps. The discussion was centered around the topics of the standards regulation, awareness raising, the influence of standards and regulatory provisions on the Smart Grid roll-out and policy recommendations.
Addressing researchers and representatives of industrial initiatives and standardizations bodies, the second workshop Lessons learned from Smart Grid demonstration projects reviewed standards related to applied technologies and ICT systems implemented in these projects.
