Feedback Service:
The feedback service is intended to meet the Smart Grid's need from resources (think VEN) to address the DR program requirements across different markets (think VTN). The following are some of the services to get started. These can potentially vary depending on the DR signal traversal from VEN to the final designated VTN. It is not intended to be be exclusive requirement under one service of EI and can be supported by different standards/PAP activities such as PAP 10/OpenADE, PAP 17/ASHRAE, etc.:
1. Measured demand.
a. Current (for load shed verification/settlement)
b. Historical (for baseline, forecast, etc.)
c. Optionally, can include peak values (although it can be extrapolated from above).
2. Predicted demand (this parameter can be a calculated data point or estimated by a VEN to VTN)
3. DR Availability (also includes any DER availability for DR)
a. How much is available in next hour?
b. How much is available in next 24-hours?
c. Optionally, how much is available next week?
4. Resource location identifier
a. Meter (s),
b. Locational information (e.g., address, grid location indicator, sub-station, etc.)
c. Optionally, assets.
6. Schedule information to above as appropriate.
