Toward Integrating Distributed Energy Resources and Storage Devices in the Smart Grid

February 1, 2017
Author(s)
Guobin Xu, Wei Yu, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie, Paul Moulema
The smart grid, as one of typical applications supported by Internet of Things, denoted as a re-engineering and a modernization of the traditional power grid, aims to provide reliable, secure, and efficient energy transmission and distribution to consumers

MyData API Patterns: OAuth

December 8, 2016
Author(s)
Martin Burns, David A. Wollman
The My Data initiatives are part of the Administration's efforts to empower Americans with secure access to their own personal data, and to increase citizens' access to private-sector data-based applications and services. With its focus on personal data

The Algebra of Systems and System Interactions with an application to Smart Grid

October 14, 2016
Author(s)
Charif Mahmoudi, Hasnae Bilil, Edward R. Griffor
Systems are integrations of devices or component elements and even other systems. The notion of a system comprehends engineered and biological or mechanical or physical systems. Examples include information and dynamical systems as well as integrations of

NIST Programs to Advance Accurate, Internationally-Recognized Stack Emissions Measurements

September 15, 2016
Author(s)
Aaron Johnson, Iosif Isaakovich Shinder, Rodney A. Bryant, JohnPaul R. Abbott, Keith A. Gillis, Joey Boyd, James Filla, Michael R. Moldover
Accurate flow measurements are essential to quantify the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other pollutants emitted from power plant stacks. Although protocols have been developed, the uncertainty of stack flow measurements has not been documented. 

2014 NIST Assessment of Phasor Measurement Unit Performance

February 9, 2016
Author(s)
Allen R. Goldstein
The first synchrophasor standard was published in 1995. The standard was revised in 2001, 2005, 2011, and 2014 with evolving performance requirements. In 2012 NIST began assessing the performance of PMUs, both commercially available and pre-production

Measurement Challenges and Metrology for Monitoring CO2 Emissions from Smokestacks – Workshop Summary

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, Rodney A. Bryant, Tamae M. Wong, James R. Whetstone, Eric Harman, Woong Kang, Keith A. Gillis, Hsin-Hung Lee, Iosif I. Shinder, Liang Zhang
On April 20-21, 2015, NIST hosted a workshop that, through measurement science, enabled the owners of stationary sources (primarily the electric power industry) and their regulatory agencies (federal and state) to better characterize greenhouse gas (GHG)

Investigation of PMU Response to Leap Second: 2015

August 24, 2015
Author(s)
Allen R. Goldstein, Dhananjay Anand, YaShian Li-Baboud
Between 22:30:00 June 30, 2015, and 00:30:00 July 2, 2015, UTC, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) tested eight Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) to investigate their response to the leap second adjustment to UTC which occurred

On Effectiveness of Smart Grid Applications using Co-simulation

August 6, 2015
Author(s)
Paul Moulema, Wei Yu, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
The smart grid is a complex system that comprises components from both the power grid and communication networks. To understand the behavior of such a complex system, co-simulation is a viable tool to capture the interaction and the reciprocal effects

Design and Capabilities of NISTs Scale-Model Smokestack Simulator (SMSS)

April 17, 2015
Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, Joey T. Boyd, Eric Harman, Mohammad M. Khalil, Jacob E. Ricker, Christopher J. Crowley, Rodney A. Bryant, Iosif I. Shinder
The amount of CO 2 emitted from a coal-fired power plant (CFPP) is measured by continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) permanently installed in the exhaust smokestack. Both the CO 2 concentration and the bulk flow are continuously measured by CEMS
