IEC

SG 3 (Strategic Group) on Smart Grid, set up by the IEC SMB (Standardization Management Board), provides advice on fast-moving ideas and technologies likely to form the basis for new International Standards or IEC TCs (Technical Committees) in the area of Smart Grid technologies. It has developed the framework and provides strategic guidance to all Technical Committees involved in Smart Grid work and has developed the Smart Grid Roadmap which covers standards for interoperability, transmission, distribution, metering, connecting consumers and cyber security. The IEC through SG 3 is working in close collaboration with Smart Grid projects around the globe, including NIST (US National Institute of Standards and Technology). IEC Standards are recognized as being crucial in the development of Smart Grids everywhere.

NIST

NIST Interagency or Internal Reports (NISTIRs) describe research of a technical nature of interest to a specialized audience. The series includes interim or final reports on work performed by NIST for outside sponsors (both government and nongovernment). NISTIRs may also report results of NIST projects of transitory or limited interest, including those that will be published subsequently in more comprehensive form.

IEEE

The IEEE standards development process is open and voluntary and operates under a consensus process. The best way to participate in standards development is to attend working group (WG) meetings. All WG meetings are open meetings. Information on upcoming WG meetings can be found on the individual WG sites.

The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 calls for the development of protocols and standards to increase the flexibility of use for Smart Grid equipment and systems. Under Section 1305 of the act, this interoperability framework "shall be flexible, uniform, and technology neutral" and "align policy, business, and technology approaches in a manner that would enable all electric resources, including demand-side resources, to contribute to an efficient, reliable electricity network."

The 2030 Smart Grid standards share the common goal of interoperability supported by interrelated and complementary technologies.

ENISA

ENISA -the European Network and Information Security Agency, working for the EU Institutions and Member States. ENISA is the EU’s response to these cyber security issues of the European Union. As such, it is the 'pace-setter' for Information Security in Europe, and a centre of expertise. 

The objective is to make ENISA’s web site the European ‘hub’ for exchange of information, best practices and knowledge in the field of Information Security. This web site is an access point to the EU Member States and other actors in this field.  'ENISA- Securing Europe's Information Society'.
