Standard for Safety for Distributed Energy Resource Management Systems
Scope:
Safety of distributed energy resource management systems (sometimes known as DERMS) comprised of systems that coordinate operation of individual distributed energy resources (DERs) such as PV arrays or wind turbines in homogenous or hybrid configurations, energy storage systems; grid interfaces; premises wiring systems; and related equipment. DERMS oversee functionality of the distributed energy system in multiple modes of operations (e.g. on grid or off grid), support grid and premises systems operation, and coordinate operation of the integrated energy assets. These requirements cover the safety of DERMS design, integration and operation as it relates to the operation of the DERs and interfaces with grid and premises wiring systems.
