2. NIST Roles & Framework “Primary responsibility to coordinate development of a framework that includes protocols and model standards for information management to achieve interoperability of smart grid devices and systems…" (EISA 2007) Interoperability—the ability of diverse systems and their components to work together NIST devised a three-phase plan to rapidly establish an initial standards framework , while providing a robust process for continued development and implementation of standards as needs and opportunities arise and as technology advances.
