During the Knoxville meeting, OpenSG members unanimously approved AMI-Ent artifacts as an “Industry Best Practice.” These artifacts, all accessible from “SmartGridiPedia” (refer to http://www.smartgridipedia.org/index.php/AMI_Enterprise), include the system requirements specification (SRS), methodology, use cases and service definitions. The service definitions are based on IEC 61968 XML schemas. Accordingly, applicable AMI-Ent XSDs are being submitted for IEC TC57 Working Group 14 (WG14) interoperability testing. Furthermore, the full set of services have been submitted to WG14 so that they can be considered for incorporation into future releases of applicable parts of the IEC 61968 series of standards.
