The IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA), a standards setting body within IEEE, has become an associate member of the India Smart Grid Forum (ISGF) promoted by Ministry of Power, Government of India.

The membership will allow IEEE-SA to attend forum meetings and participate in initiatives driven by the forum. “IEEE-SA has been continually investing over the past two years in creating wider awareness of Smart Grid as a concept and also in bringing multiple stakeholders together to transfer best practices and knowledge from other Smart Grid markets worldwide,” a press statement said.

IEEE-SA has launched key standards and guidelines such as the IEEE 2030 Smart Grid Interoperability Guide, IEEE 1547TM, for implementation of Microgrids and the IEEE 1901TM standard for broadband over power line.
