Energy Interop Server and System (EISS™)
A standards‐based web services enabled real time pricing, demand response, and transactive energy server that automates scalable two way communications from energy providers to commercial, industrial and residential consumers.

What Does EISS™ Do?
EISS allows energy providers to communicate in near real time with their customers in the following ways:
• Send Pricing (Locational Marginal Price (LMP), hourly, or some other type).
• Send Demand Response events and receive confirmation of curtailment.
• Receive notification of Price Responsive Demand (PRD) curtailment actions.
• Easily sort and automatically forward notifications from energy providers to your customers.
• Monitor load behavior in near real time.
• It can even allow you to trade energy in certain ISO markets.
EISS™Box
Enables interoperability by translating and communicating from EI and OpenADR 2.0 protocols to provide control signals to a variety of devices (i.e. HVAC, solar and wind generation, ice storage, etc.); using a multiplicity of protocols and standards including BACnet and Modbus.
Energy Interop Server and System (EISS™) is an open standards based system that uses the new OASIS Energy Interop™ standard. This standard was created in alignment with the federal Smart Grid efforts led by NIST to provide a single, open standard on which all energy related communications could be based. This standard is open and not specific to any single manufacturer. This attribute means that many different equipment manufacturers can adopt this standard and this can significantly reduce DA/CSP costs to add new customers.
IPKeys Demonstration of Oasis Energy Interop™"
The Energy Interoperation TC works to define interaction between Smart Grids and their end nodes, including Smart Buildings, Enterprises, Industry, Homes, and Vehicles. The TC develops data and communication models that enable the interoperable and standard exchange of signals for dynamic pricing, reliability, and emergencies. The TC's agenda also extends to the communication of market participation data (such as bids), load predictability, and generation information...
What is EIOS?
EIOS is an open source implementation of the EiEvent service found in the OpenADR 2.0 Profile of the OASIS Energy Interop™ 1.0 standard. EIOS is intended for utilities and others interested in a rapid “first look” at the OpenADR 2.0 standard without need to license commercial software. This standard was created in alignment with federal Smart Grid efforts to provide a single, open standard for energy related communications. This work is based in part on research conducted under NIST contract SB134110CN0148.
The IPKeys Energy Interop Open Source (EIOS) system uses a Service-Oriented Architecture. EIOS uses loosely coupled web based services to provide various capabilities (services) to the users.
EIOS Features
• A web portal to allow users to create and modify an account, subscribe to a price feed, demand response (DR) events, set a participation schedule and perform OPT IN/OUT.
• An administrative portal to create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) account data, program details and conditions.
• The ability to maintain simple DR programs and schedules.
• Communicate price data with EiEvent (simple via live real time price feed, or from a spreadsheet, or entered directly in web portal.)
• Create and Call a DR Event
• Allow customers “opt out” of the client application and at the server portal (EiOpt).
