Interoperability Test Solutions For Smart Grid Technologies
The Smart Grid empowers active management, oversight and participation by both producers and consumers of electrical energy. Achieving this empowerment requires overlaying communications infrastructures and related products on the power grid – in effect, connecting all of the pieces in a power grid to the Internet so communication can take place in real time.
The Smart Grid will require a rich set of technologies, protocols, APIs and at times proprietary technologies. For the Smart Grid to work correctly, all of its components must interoperate in order to achieve the set goals that the Smart Grid system is expected to produce. Interoperability is a central factor in making the Smart Grid a working reality.
QualityLogic has specialized in testing the conformance to specifications and interoperability of diverse technologies for 25 years. Now we bring this expertise to the Smart Grid.
