MORGAN HILL, Calif., Jan. 27, 2015: The OpenADR Alliance today
announced availability of the first draft of the OpenADR 2.0 Program
Guide to facilitate more DR programs and further product development.
The guide defines typical automated demand response (ADR) programs and
explains how they are implemented using OpenADR 2.0. The OpenADR
Program Guide expands the range of DR deployment scenarios available to
energy providers, while giving equipment manufacturers better
information on typical DR Program usage models so they can support a
full range of DR programs in their products.
“The OpenADR standard is rapidly becoming the international solution of
choice for residential, commercial and industrial DR programs,” said
Rolf Bienert, technical director, OpenADR Alliance. “This guide will
provide manufacturers with a better understanding of the requirements
of their systems beyond the OpenADR 2.0 interface and will give
utilities commonly used recipes tailored to target typical DR
objectives and problems.”
“Each DR program is unique, aligned to the requirements of the region
it is deployed in,” said Ed Koch, co-author and ambassador, OpenADR
Alliance. “This guide was created to shed light on the variability of
DR program designs, deployment scenarios, and OpenADR characteristics
to help expand deployment of ADR programs and adoption of OpenADR
certified products.”
The OpenADR 2.0 Program Guide will provide utilities with examples of
DR program models that can be adapted for their own DR program
implementations, while providing equipment manufacturers with a better
understanding of DR program usage models for use in their control
systems.
The OpenADR Alliance is soliciting feedback on the draft document over
the next 60-days and plans to publish the final guide in mid-2015.
Please send any comments regarding the guide to comments@openadr.org.
In order to enable system-level interoperability, the OpenADR Alliance
is also planning to create a testing and certification program for the
templates contained in the Program Guide.
