OASIS Open

ISO/RTO Council (IRC)

Yes

EMIX is an extremely flexible tool. The IRC supports developing standards that will enable greater interoperation demand response and energy storage, and EMIX is able to convey this information. It is with reservations that we vote yes, due in part to the extreme flexibility which will require profiling to ensure interoperability. This in addition to the reclassification of products as options. While EMIX Options appears able to represent certain aspects of ancillary service products, it does so in a manner that appears to be in disagreement with current market systems. In an effort to move the development of demand response and energy storage systems forward we are in approval of the standard, yet at this time do not see a current implementation as possible.
