Testing Solutions & Platforms for Utilities
Testing Tools & Services for Successfully Implementing Smart Energy Technologies
How do you evolve your grid to accommodate the rapidly changing energy market, specify standards-based products, and increase the vendor population? All while reducing system integration costs and time to deployment? QualityLogic is a recognized leader in achieving interoperability between Smart Energy products and systems, and we are ready to help ensure your success.
Trust the Interoperability Experts
Team Education
Get your team up to speed on emerging smart grid standards like OpenADR 2, IEEE 2030.5, IEC 61850, SunSpec, OCPP, IEC 15118, Green Button, MultiSpeak, and more, and learn how to implement DR programs successfully.
Standards Maturity
The QualityLogic team can help you assess the maturity of smart grid standards you are considering. This ensures informed decisions about specifications, development and implementation plans.
Interop Testing
Get the state-of-the-art test tools to simulate environments to test the interoperability of smart grid products. Test an implementation against a “correct” implementation and debug interoperability issues.
Buy with Confidence
QualityLogic works with industry alliances and consortiums to design, develop and support test tools for certification programs for smart grid standards.
Making It All Work Together
The Smart Energy industry has made great strides in establishing standards to promote product interoperability. But, the selection of technology standards is just the starting point. Challenges you’ll face include:
- How to evaluate and select standards to be used
- Training your team to develop, specify and/or acquire products based on specific standards
- Assessing the maturity of various standards so you can avoid orphaned or obsolete implementations as standards evolve
- Designing implementation processes to ensure interoperability of products from multiple vendors
- Accelerating development and deployment of products while ensuring interoperability
The emergence of IEEE 2030.5 in home energy management applications provides potential benefit for utilities and their customers. The test program will save us valuable effort and time in considering bringing IEEE 2030.5 compatible solutions to our customers.
