This standard establishes a unified set of technical specifications for data computation and communication in the context of large-scale, heterogeneous distributed energy resources (such as photovoltaic (PV), energy storage, and charging facilities). In the context of the standard, large-scale refers to scenarios of distributed energy resource units exceeding 500 or the total installed capacity exceeding 10 MW within a coordinated control area. To provide the computational foundation for real-time perception, optimized decision-making, and distributed collaborative control, the standard addresses: a) functional specifications, algorithm deployment, and real-time inference mechanisms for lightweight intelligent compute units (e.g., edge-based computing devices for DER applications); b) a unified information model for intelligent computing, including the semantics of input, output, and feature data; c) interface protocols for data exchange between intelligent compute units and DER systems; d) core service interfaces for compute task distribution, model updates, and computational result reporting; and e) communication protocols for coordination of computational and data flows

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No Superseded Standards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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
