What is the interoperability statement that
chicken come with?

... the way they walk? ... the speed they
make? ... the way they have synchronisational
meetings? ... their funny language? ... the cock?

Mandate goal
Mandate M/441 goal
Enable interoperable solutions
for smart metering.

• Investment protection granted by refreshment of
  solution
• You need good standards
• Not mandatorily good standards
• Interoperability must be stated

• Investment protection granted by single
  contractor
• You need good contracts
• Not mandatorily good standards
• Interoperability is beeing paid

Basic rules for M/441 smart metering standards

• The M/441 standards apply for functionalities and
  interfaces of smart metering
• They specify common guidelines and procedures,
  where individual technical standards apply with
• They do not recommend any specific architecture
  or technology
• They are open to regulatory market models and
  individual business cases
• They are able to integrate variations of
  standards in the upper layer of a configuration
  area
• The SMCG technical report shall mainly describe
  these guidelines, not implementations

Divide solutions in functional areas
Functional area Requirements Standards guidelines
meters Shall not be limited in technology improvement MID
meters Must fulfil national requirements MID
meters Protect consumers MID
Smart metering topologies Shall not be limited in technology improvement Multiple individual standards available and in development New technology can come up with new or existing standards
Smart metering topologies Can be different in Germany, France, Italy, Netherland, Spain, UK ... Multiple individual standards available and in development New technology can come up with new or existing standards
Smart metering topologies Compete against each other Multiple individual standards available and in development New technology can come up with new or existing standards
Central systems Need to support multiple architectures and standards COSEM as central data model for all architectures
Central systems Need to support minimum functionality for individual topologies (services) COSEM as central data model for all architectures
Central systems Interoperability to be required by customers and operators and supported by vendors COSEM as central data model for all architectures
