IEEE 2030.5

The protocol problem for distributed energy is not more gateways — it is one interoperable profile from site devices to utility systems.

The problem

Translation layers create latency and risk

Many DER deployments still depend on bridge architectures: a device speaks a local protocol to a gateway; the gateway translates again for the utility or cloud. Every translation adds latency, operational complexity, and another security surface — especially when demand response or VPP participation requires fast, authenticated control.

IEEE 2030.5 is the smart energy profile Joule Junction designs the metering and digital layer around: Smart energy profile — DER, BTM, demand response, VPP. Native, not bridged.

Platform design

Metering

IEEE 2030.5-native data layer. Measurement at every point — grid edge, DC bus, load, charger.

IEEE 2030.5 Smart Meters

Native smart energy profile — DER, BTM, demand response, VPP. Not adapted, not bridged.

DC Energy Meters

Precision DC metering across the DC bus — generation, storage, load. Joule Junction branded.

Sensors & Data Acquisition

Temperature, current, voltage, power quality — continuous telemetry across every point.

OCPP 2.0.1 / 2.1 Charging Metering

Per-port energy measurement, session data (design target).

Markets

CSIP-AUS

Australian smart inverter profile — IEEE 2030.5 implementation for DNSP compliance.

Where markets require a regional implementation profile of IEEE 2030.5 — such as CSIP-AUS for Australian DNSP contexts — the platform is designed so that profile sits in the same native stack rather than as an external gateway afterthought.

Digital layer

Joule Junction OS

Native IEEE 2030.5 architecture. The digital layer across DC BUS, Metering, and Energy Management.
