The Insights Foundation for Energy Data Model

The Insights Foundation for Energy data model is based on the Common Information Model (CIM) Data Model and needs be populated with data through Data Loading.

The CIM is a standard adopted by the International Electromechanical Commission (IEC) for the reporting and exchange of information about electrical supply networks. Three types of data need be loaded into the IFE Data Model:
  • Ontology - used to define the supported assets classes and properties of the asset classes.
  • Static data - used to define nameplate data, geographical location, network connectivity, measurement definitions and the relationships between assets.
  • Dynamic data - is the data that changes over time.
