Energy interoperability for a more sustainable future
TEIA, the Trusted Energy Interoperability Alliance, is a global security and interoperability standard for the energy industry that responds to industry demand for device and data interoperability. It aims to create standards and agreed upon formats and protocols for secure and interoperable data communications within connected energy systems.
TEIA offers the entire global energy ecosystem with a trust model for building secure, interoperable, digital-first energy systems that accelerate our path to decarbonization.
Challenges of connecting data and devices from multiple vendors
Energy companies operate OT/IT systems from multiple hardware and software vendors.
Because their interfaces and data streams are often proprietary and encrypted it is difficult to conduct day-to-day activities such as internal planning, operations, and maintenance. Optimizing asset and technology portfolios can be even more difficult, without a holistic view of key performance parameters.
As data flows from OT to IT (OT/IT convergence), security gaps arise and leave systems open to exploits by malicious actors and heightening the risk of unauthorized access, data breaches, and data compromise.
Standardization for security and interoperability
Protect your investment and stay flexible. Standards for authentication and authorization are the critical foundation for building seamless interoperability across secure, efficient, and compliant systems.
The market is open to standardization, allowing energy hardware manufacturers and software providers to control their businesses and sell products that are robust and interoperable.
Integrated security for the entire value chain
TEIA responds to industry demand for device and data interoperability. It aims to create standards and agreed upon formats and protocols for secure and interoperable data communications within connected energy systems.
