CIM Issues #6752
Deprecate Part 5 Modelling
Description
All of the classes in the DER sub-package of Support should be deprecated as they overlap with modelling constructs in various other areas as follows:
DERFunction
> This class contains a bunch of flags which document functions that are supported. Is a small subset of the AssetInfo specializations for the appropriate types of DERs, e.g. smart inverters, EVs, etc.
DERMonitorableParameter
> These are measurements and should not be in the asset package. To be rolled into all of the new modelling we have in Grid related to edge-device controls and measurements.
DERCurveData
Generic time series data connecting DERMonitorableParameter to Dispatch Schedule. If above goes away, so does this one.
DERGroupDispatch
> Simple class with no attributes. Dispatches should be in Markets. Plus there is no "dispatch" here anyway.
DispatchSchedule
> Here is where the dispatch schedule lives, disconnected from the GroupDispatch but connected to DERMonitorableParameter. As noted above, dispatches are in Markets.
DERGroupForecast
> Simple class with only a creation date. Forecasts are normally in Markets (as Schedules) and/or Grid.
Proposed Solution
Mark for Deprecation:
DERFunction
DERMonitorableParameter
DERCurveData
DERGroupDispatch
DERGroupForecast
DispatchSchedule
No data to display
