Consumer Portal
The Consumer Portal is a critical element to enable the vision
of IntelliGrid - the power system of the future - by enabling consumers
to participate in the competitive energy markets, and providing
action and feedback from the consumers, which represent millions
of connecting points to the network. It not only provides an interface
for energy related services (e.g. meter reading, outage detection,
demand response, bill disaggregation, and real-time pricing), but
also numerous additional potential functions to industrial, commercial,
and residential electric energy users.
This project, the first stage in the multi-year Portal Infrastructure
Development Program, will help provide direction through active
participation in standards and protocol development as well as creation
of a common applications language for building open systems-based
architectures.
