Contracts - AWARD SUMMARY
ELECTRIC POWER RESEARCH INSTITUTE, INC.
Under Title XIII, Section 1305 of the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007, the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has “primary responsibility to coordinate development of a framework that includes protocols and model standards for information management to achieve interoperability of smart grid devises and systems.” The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided additional funding to implement Section 1305 of EISA. NIST used a portion of these funds to accelerate the development of the interoperability framework and model standards. In March 2009, NIST awarded Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. (EPRI) a contract valued at $1,324,427.60 (non-ARRA funds) to assist NIST in the development of an Interim Roadmap that has consensus support of industry stakeholders, including those identified in EISA. The Interim Roadmap shall be a document that describes the issues and priorities for interoperability standards development and harmonization, with an action plan that addresses these issues. On June 29, 2009, NIST issued Modification #005 to EPRI's contract using ARRA funds ($543,445.80). The modification was to provide additional funds for EPRI to assist NIST by performing the following: (1) Develop a report of the development of the Interim Roadmap and Workshops from both the Base Period and Option Period, including methodologies used and lessons learned, and attend a debriefing covering all contract activities; (2) Provide a Revised Interim Roadmap which shall be based on the Interim Roadmap provided in the Base Period, and shall be revised based on feedback from professional/industry organizations, appropriate standard developing organizations (SDOs) and other Smart Grid stakeholders and the general public; (3) Organize and facilitate a Smart Grid Standards Workshop to develop consensus for and to assign responsibilities to entities to address issues identified in the Revised Roadmap. The invited attendees shall include but are not limited to: (a) the members of the Domain Expert Working Groups (DEWGs) and (b) various Smart Grid stakeholders as identified in the EISA and (c) the general public.
