Excerpt: Real-time interface: deepening
"Since October 2020, grid operators and market participants have been working together on a Real-Time Interface (RTI). The goal of this interface is to enable generators and grid operators to collaborate on increasing and better utilizing transmission capacity and maintaining the electricity grid safely. The RTI specification was published in February 2024."
IEC 61850 Protocol Implementation Document (PID)
Excerpt: "IEC 61850 Real Time Interface (RTI), as defined by the Dutch System Operators specifies the implementation profile of the IEC 61850 Real Time Interface (RTI), as defined by the Dutch System Operators."
30 years after the start of the standardization work for IEC 61850 it is obvious that IEC 61850 is THE standard series when it comes to the exchange of real-time information between power generation sites and control centers of DSOs.
