Abstract:  This specification defines an information model and XML vocabulary for the  interoperable and standard exchange of prices and product definitions in  transactive energy markets:  ?       Price information  ?       Bid information  ?       Time for use or availability  ?       Units and quantity to be traded  ?       Characteristics of what is traded  TC Description:  The following is adapted from the EMIX PR02 announcement; I'm not sure where  the  Specification Overview fits in this form.
TC Description:
The OASIS Energy Market Information Exchange (eMIX)

TC [1] was chartered to  define standards for exchanging energy characteristics, availability, and  schedules to support the free and effective exchange of information. Better  communication of actionable energy prices will help enable and expand  efficient  markets that satisfy the growing demand for lower-carbon, lower-energy  buildings, net zero-energy systems, and supply-demand integration that take  advantage of dynamic pricing. The TC has addressed requirements consolidated  by  NAESB and the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel's Priority Action Plan 03  Working Group.
Direct participants have included representatives of Southern California  Edison,  the ISO-RTO Council, California ISO, Midwest ISO, New York ISO, Lawrence  Berkeley National Laboratory, Enernex, UISOL, members of the UCAIug OpenADR  Task  Force, the OpenADR Alliance, and representatives of the National Institute of  Science and Technology, Schneider Electric, Siemens AG, EPRI, OATi, The Open  Geospatial Consortium, LonMark International, Lockheed Martin, EnerNOC,  Trane,  CPower, Microsoft, JPMorganChase, TIBCO, University of North Carolina, Alstom  Power, and experts in energy markets and in cross-domain integration and  information modeling.
This work is closely related to OASIS WS-Calendar 1.0 and OASIS Energy  Interoperation 1.0.
Specification Overview:
This specification is one of three related OASIS technical works in progress.  For a graphical view of the relationships, see
http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid/bin/view/SmartGrid/EMIXissuesPage  on  the NIST Smart Grid collaborative site.
(a) Web Services Calendar 1.0 (WS-Calendar Technical Committee page is
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-calendar ) is the common XML  vocabulary  for expressing schedules. EMIX uses this vocabulary to express energy  schedules  and prices; implementers and other standards are also using WS-Calendar.  WS-Calendar has just started its third Public Review.
(b) Energy Market Information Exchange 1.0 (EMIX Technical Committee page is
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/emix ) is the TC that has approved this  public review. EMIX is the common XML vocabulary for expressing market  information including tenders, market transactions, prices and product  definitions for implementers and other standards. EMIX uses the WS-Calendar  vocabulary to express schedule information, and the EMIX vocabulary is used  by  Energy Interoperation and other standards and implementations.
(c) Energy Interoperation 1.0 (Energy Interoperation Technical Committee page  is
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/energyinterop ) is the common XML  vocabulary  for expressing curtailment events, price communication, as well as Web  services  definitions for interactions using the information payloads. The Energy  Interoperation TC is planning its second Public Review in July 2011.
Please refer to line numbers in the PDF version of the specification when  providing comments.
Notification List: Will be sent as a spreadsheet by Sunday, June 26.  Notes:  NOTES TO TC ADMIN:  This public review depends on the processing and uploading of EMIX CSD03  (TCADMIN-556).
The TC would like the Public Review to end no earlier than July 14, but the  issuance should be as soon as possible - in other words, please extend the  length from 15 days as needed to end no earlier than July 14.
************* Thank you for your request. We will prepare the Public Review Draft and begin the PR shortly after publication of the OASIS Energy Market Information Exchange 1.0 CSD03 in TCADMIN-556. You can follow the progress at:
