The primary guiding document for creating the next-generation "smart" energy grid is getting its first major update in two years. NIST is requesting public comment on a draft of the NIST Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, Release 3.0. The new document builds upon and updates the February 2012 Framework Release 2.0, NIST's outline of the plan to transform the nation's aging electric power system into an interoperable smart grid.
On May 2, NIST will host a webinar to present the new draft framework to the public.
