IEEE-SA Launches Work on Groundbreaking Electric Sourced Transportation Infrastructure Standards
 |
PISCATAWAY, N.J.--The IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) announced today that the first meeting of the IEEE P1809 Working Group will be on 18 February 2010, and is inviting those involved in electric sourced transportation and vehicles to participate. This includes: Electric power system owners, planners, designers, and operators; equipment and vehicle manufacturers; distributed energy resource personnel; plugin electric vehicle transportation support personnel; energy efficiency and demand response personnel; regulatory and government bodies.
With the expected growth in electric sources vehicles over the next few decades, an expected impact will be stress on electric generation capacity. P1809 will provide guidelines that can be used by utilities, manufacturers, transportation providers, infrastructure developers and end users of electric-sourced vehicles and related support infrastructure in addressing applications for road-based personal and mass transportation. The guide, when complete, will provide a knowledge base addressing terminology, methods, equipment and planning requirements for such transportation and its impacts on commercial and industrial systems including, for example, generation, transmission, and distribution systems of electrical power, and can serve as a roadmap for users to plan for short, medium, and long-term systems.
| What: | IEEE P1809 Working Group Meeting | |
| Web-based meeting at which presentations from organizations involved with the various aspects of electric sourced transportation will be given. The initial meeting of the P1809 working group will inform attendees what has been developed in this space, what is being developed and what they can expect in the future. The meeting will cover the outline of the new standard and solicit members from the utility and transportation industry to participate in the development of the standard. | ||
