The
industry has always relied on utility-specific protocols for its operational
data exchange. But for the past 15 years, it has been moving towards the
digital world. Let us take, for example, the IEC 61850: a protocol and object
model used for communication between Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs)
within a substation, or between IEDs and a control center. This data model is
now mapped on RESTful web services, and transmitted over TCP/IP and 3GPP networks.
So we can infer that internet standards have already largely impacted utility
connectivity solutions. Beyond connectivity, Network Management Systems (NMS)
will become a key component of the IoT. Utility providers will have to manage
heterogeneous communications systems – multi-vendor, multi-protocol networks
with varying quality of service constraints. The NMS for utilities will benefit
from the telecommunications industry, which has already dealt with issues of
scalability, the need to support legacy protocol and devices, security, integration
with back office and information presentation. The IoT will rely on platforms
that can process a large volume of data and enable the building of applications
and services. Here again, the platforms developed for the telecom industry will
offer the required functionalities at the lowest cost, using the latest internet
technologies for cloud and service offerings. An advantage of using this type
of platform is that energy service providers may, where regulation allows,
offer a bundle of services in a similar way.
