IEEE Standard Profile for Communications with Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) Using IEEE Std 1815(TM) [Distributed Network Protocol (DNP3)]
A standard profile for communications with distributed energy resources (DERs) using IEEE Std 1815™ [Distributed Network Protocol (DNP3)] is established. A high-level data model for DER communications, based on selected data objects from International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61850-7-420:2021 mapped to a fixed list of DNP3 data points, comprises the profile. The data objects needed for many DER and inverter-base resources (IBRs) functions, including those in IEEE Std 1547™-2018, IEEE Std 2800™-2022, and IEEE Std 1547.9™-2022, as well as additional functions needed for storage systems, are also specified. In addition, a mapping to detailed equipment-related data objects, including meters, DER units, inverters, and batteries, is provided. The profile is presented in both a written and an electronic format (IEEE 1815.2 Profile Companion Data Point Tables) for ease of implementation.
