Business Case Outline • Executive Summary – Having a more harmonized weather exchange model among the many current formats increases interoperability, improves data quality, and reduces the cost of acquisition of weather information which allows more resources to be devoted to innovative uses of weather. • Who are we? – The Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) accelerates the implementation of interoperable smart grid devices and systems. • The Challenge – Detailed knowledge of weather – current, historical, and forecasted – can provide the basis for Smart Grid stakeholders to optimize current and future operations and to mitigate disruption and damage from adverse weather events. • Why Harmonized Weather Standards Will Help – In order to exploit weather data, it must first be acquired analyzed. The process of data acquisition itself is purely overhead and does not provide any direct value. Value comes from analysis of weather data once obtained. • What Will Drive This Forward – Stakeholders in an open weather data ecosystem will thrive with harmonized and low-impedance availability of data for exchange 11/1/2020 Accelerating Grid Modernization More information available on SGIP. org 13 p: 781 -876 -8857 | e: info @SGIP. org

Scales of Motion in the atmosphere • • • Microscale: Atmospheric motions with Lagrangian Rossby numbers greater than 200 or spatial scales 2 km or less. Mesoscale: Pertaining to atmospheric phenomena having horizontal scales ranging from a few to several hundred kilometers, including thunderstorms, squall lines, fronts, precipitation bands in tropical and extratropical cyclones, and topographically generated weather systems such as mountain waves and sea and land breezes. From a dynamical perspective, this term pertains to processes with timescales ranging from the inverse of the Brunt–Väisälä frequency to a pendulum day, encompassing deep moist convection and the full spectrum of inertio-gravity waves but stopping short of synoptic-scale phenomena, which have Rossby numbers less than 1. Synoptic (cyclonic) scale: Used with respect to weather systems ranging in size from several hundred kilometers to several thousand kilometers, the scale of migratory high and low pressure systems (frontal cyclones) of the lower troposphere. The scale of the migratory high and low pressure systems (or cyclone waves) of the troposphere with wave lengths of 1000– 4000 km. 11/1/2020 Accelerating Grid Modernization More information available on SGIP. org p: 781 -876 -8857 | e: info @SGIP. org

Business Case Benefits Notes (2) • 28 Benefits to allocate to business oriented use cases – Microclimate data availability can enrich the quality and precision of weather data providing for better analysis at lower cost. – Localized microclimate data down to the customer premise combined with regional data can provide cost-effective and accurate localized energy efficiency analyses. – Standardized data allow deployment of services across territories without additional cost and tailoring. – For acquirers of services, standardization or harmonization reduces the occurrence of vendor lock-in due to compatibility as opposed to from availability of unique and excellent services. – The opportunity for value-added services is increased by the ubiquitous availability of sourced data. – Additional sources of weather that can be easily integrated create the opportunity for a large ecosystem of service providers. Today’s divergent sources of weather data impede the ecosystem due to the high cost of acquiring and integrating data. – A well-established harmonized reference reduces uncertainty about data quality. Combining information from varying sources of differing quality can result in a net more accurate forecast and analysis. This in turn can reduce the liability for predictions based on its use. Higher resolution and metadata can be available than could be cost justified due to ease of integration. – More accurate and quantitative availability of weather data can improve resilience including minimizing outage times and restorations. The costs of outages can be reduced through better preparation and coordination of first responders. 11/1/2020 Accelerating Grid Modernization More information available on SGIP. org p: 781 -876 -8857 | e: info @SGIP. org
