Smart Grid Maturity Model Update (Update October 2010)
Abstract
The Smart Grid Maturity Model (SGMM)is a management tool that utilities can leverage to plan their smart grid journeys, prioritize their options, and measure their progress as they move toward the realization of a smart grid. The SGMM was founded by utilities for utilities when the Global Intelligent Utility Network Coalition, a smart grid collaboration of 11utilities, saw the need in the industry for this tool. The model describes eight domains, which contain logical groupings of incremental smart grid characteristics and capabilities that represent key elements of smart grid strategy, organization, implementation, and operation. Utilities use the SGMM to assess their current state of smart grid implementation, define their goals for a future state, and generate inputs into their roadmapping, planning, and implementation processes. As more and more utilities around the globe participate and the SGMM experience base grows, the SGMM becomes an increasingly valuable resource for helping to inform the industrys smart grid transformation.
