IEC 61850 Global 2018 - 150+ IEC 61850 Specialists and Implementation Leaders Convene in Berlin for a Review of the Most Recent Implementations Globally - Seite 2

Discussions will deep dive into actual experiences of implementation issues surrounding specification, design, installation, testing, operation and maintenance. Optimisation of key features such as GOOSE and R-GOOSE will be addressed, as well as integration with other standards such as CIM, and building system resilience through 61850-specific cyber security. New approaches to driving IEC 61850 to the grid edge and enabling effective integration of DER and EVs will be discussed. Updates from ENTSO-E and EDSO will reveal how TSO and DSO interest groups are supporting the development of the standard to support large-scale cost-effective deployment worldwide.

"IEC 61850 Global 2018 is the only truly end-user driven forum for the 61850 community," says Mandana White. "It was launched to give voice to the utility community, to enable in-depth and honest discussions that would lead to new solutions and partnerships and ultimately faster deployments globally. We believe these objectives are being well met and we look forward to facilitating discussions and partnerships that will lead to the deployment of the standard across the wider smart grid".

"A very useful time, open exchange of ideas and information. Excellent real-world presentations." - Allan Wales, Distribution Systems Specialist - SP Energy Networks

"Excellent opportunity to network in PACS related subject. Very close to implementation sharing of ideas that can contribute to the improvement of the standard, procedures, tools and equipment. Very useful to be updated with the latest TC57 WG10 developments and to refresh concepts through the workshop." -Bruno Miguel Soares, Researcher, Substation of the Future - R&D Nester

"Perfect event for meeting colleagues in the IEC 61850 world: vendors for IEDs, tools, test-sets, TSOs, DSOs, engineering companies and IEC group members. It was interesting to see and hear what others are working with and where the standard is moving. I hope to be able to participate again." - Anders Dahl Johnsen, Protection Engineer - Siemens

Discussions topics include: 

• IEC 61850 standards update: outlining the updates to Edition 2.1 of IEC 61850-6 to address the challenges of interoperability and make efficient engineering in a multi-vendor, multi edition system a reality
  
• Tendering and specification process: developing a new tendering and specification process to address the challenges of ensuring interoperability for multi-edition systems
