Abstract:Heterogeneous smart grid systems operate with different and incompatible protocols. MIRABEL and OpenADR are prominent examples, providing intelligent demand respond functionalities. In principle of operationas in complexity, both protocols differ significantly, which results in a lack of inter-connectivity amongthemselves. Connecting these commonly used standards makes it possible to benefit from different protocoladvantages and prevents from reconstructing whole smart grid systems for consolidation. Furthermore, itholds potentials for interoperability of individually produced smart grid components. This work contributes aconceptual mapping model between OpenADR and MIRABEL on the basis of a detailed protocol analysis, aswell as an initial implementation.
