Requirements for DER modeling
Distributed Energy Resources in the power system
• DER includes generation, controllable loads and energy storage
• Utilities are responsible for reliability and electrical requirements within the distribution system
• Large amounts of DER connected to the distribution grid need to be handled
• Utilities need information about location, capabilities and operational status of the DERs
• DERs may have to comply to grid codes
• DERs can assist in meeting utility requirements
INTRODUCTION TO IEC61850
03/05/2021 27
Requirements for DER modeling
Stakeholders exchanging information with DERs
• DER controller
• Autonomous operation of DER
• Facility DER Management
• Management of multiple DERs at a facility
• Third parties
• Aggregators manage multiple DERs at distributed locations
• They can manage single DERs directly or multiple DERs through a facility management system
• Utility operational grid management
• Utility applications may require interaction with DER both monitoring as well as control
 To enable the access of those different stakeholders to a DER, a standardized semantic data model
significantly reduces integration effort
INTRODUCTION TO IEC61850
03/05/2021 28
Requirements for DER modeling
Examples of information exchange with DER
• Nameplate like capabilities or ratings
• Operational settings like parameters for grid code functions
• Real time data like real power output
• Activation of operational functions like volt-var control
• Send schedules like active power schedule for next day

Elements of a DER Model in IEC 61850

composed of DERs
• A DER unit is of a single type –

Elements of a DER Model in IEC 61850

• Generic characteristics of storage as

INTRODUCTION TO IEC61850
03/05/2021 35
DER modeling in IEC 61850 – Summary
• The modeling approach for DERs in IEC 61850-7-420 provides
• A standardized generic view of a DER independent of the DER type as it may be needed for operational
management of the DER by various stakeholders like aggregators or utility operational grid management
• Type specific information as it may be needed for maintenance
• The possibility to model aggregated DERs as a single DER with the same standardized generic view
• Additionally, IEC 61850-7-420 provides models for operational functions like Grid Codes supporting
a standardized access to parameters
• For integration of devices with legacy interfaces like Modbus or IEC 60870-5-104, IEC 61850
defines mappings which allows to link information elements from the legacy protocol to the semantic
IEC 61850 data model

DER modeling in IEC 61850 – Summary • The modeling approach for DERs in IEC 61850-7-420 provides • A standardized generic view of a DER independent of the DER type as it may be needed for operational management of the DER by various stakeholders like aggregators or utility operational grid management • Type specific information as it may be needed for maintenance • The possibility to model aggregated DERs as a single DER with the same standardized generic view • Additionally, IEC 61850-7-420 provides models for operational functions like Grid Codes supporting a standardized access to parameters • For integration of devices with legacy interfaces like Modbus or IEC 60870-5-104, IEC 61850 defines mappings which allows to link information elements from the legacy protocol to the semantic IEC 61850 data model 36 INTRODUCTION TO IEC61850 03/05/2021
