scope:

ISO/IEC 15067-3-51:2020 specifies a Narrow AI Engine Framework including requirements for the Energy Management Agent (EMA) specified in ISO/IEC 15067-3. This standard includes specifications for an AI infrastructure to be embedded in an EMA serving a single structure (home or building) or community housing such as an apartment complex. The Narrow AI Engine specified in this standard for EMAs enables demand response functionality to be located in each EMA instead of an external energy management system. Thus, energy management can be adapted to local and customer needs. The Narrow AI Engine includes operational principles such as prediction, decision-making, and control. This standard builds upon the EMA functions of ISO/IEC 15067-3 and ISO/IEC 15067-3-3. The AI functions specified in this standard support complex decisions about energy management for devices attached to home and buildings networks. These AI specifications enable the EMA to allocate power from public sources (including conventional and nonconventional sources) and local sources (wind, solar, and storage) according to price, availability, appliance and electric vehicle demands, customer preferences, and the customer's budget.
