Abstract:
Efficient energy storage in distributed energy systems depends on the operation of a set of coordinated devices
spread around the power system. These include not only storage devices, but also production and consumption
devices. Usually these devices encompass some communication skills and are able to be operated by
energy management systems, regarding the status of the power system. However, despite this interaction
readiness, most of these devices rely on non-standard communication protocols and some interoperability
issues still remain. This paper presents an innovative plug & play approach for the integration of energy storage
devices, supported by a standard-based and service-oriented software infrastructure entitled NEtworked
MOnitoring & COntrol, Diagnostic for Electrical Distribution (NEMO). This approach adopts the International
Electrotechnical Commission’s 61850 (IEC 61850) semantic information model and the Devices Profile
for Web Services (DPWS) specific communication se
rvice mapping, to perform a seamless device integration
and communication of energy storage devices.
