This document provides approaches and good practices for the design, planning, maintenance, and operation of Intentional Island Systems (IISs) and their integration and interoperability with other Electric Power Systems (EPSs). This includes the ability to separate from and reconnect to other EPSs while providing power to the IIS. This guide includes the Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), interconnection systems, components of the IIS, interoperability and protection requirements, mode transitions, communications, and interactions with other EPSs. The use of DERs for improving reliability of electric service to loads and resilience of the IIS is discussed. Also, some of the guidance provided in this document may be applicable to systems with no connection to any larger EPS–permanently islanded, stand-alone, or isolated power systems.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.

IEEE Guide for Design, Operation, and Integration of Distributed Resource Island Systems with Electric Power Systems
Alternative approaches and good practices for the design, operation, and integration of distributed resource (DR) island systems with electric power systems (EPS) are provided. This includes the ability to separate from and reconnect to part of the area EPS while providing power to the islanded EPSs. This guide includes the DRs, interconnection systems, and participating EPSs.
