Communications standards, such as the standards established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Smart Grid ©20 14 ACEEE Summer Study on Energy Efficiency in Buildings 6-106 Interoperability Panel (NIST-SGIP), improve interoperability of components in the smart grid network and address the dependability of signals reaching curtailable loads and loads subsequently respondin. [...] Building codes, and to a lesser extent appliance standard, can increase the prevalence of loads that are capable of modulating power use in response to a DR signal thereby increasing the magnitude of potential power curtailment from the grid as a whole. [...] This had the benefits of reducing the cost of technology integration in these devices and allowed the reuse of these clients all over the world for ubiquitous and secure access to the Internet. [...] a Interoperability of Smart grid and Facility Interface refers to the facility system(s) or sub-system(s) that connect to the electric grid to receive and respond to communications. [...] The building operator must have a plan that documents how the building will meet the demand reduction commitment, and the scope of work for the commissioning authority must include a test of the DR system, including participation in at least one test of the DR response plan.
