61400-25 (Communications for monitoring and control of wind power plants, TC 88) provides uniform information exchange for monitoring and control of wind power plants. This addresses the issue of proprietary communication systems utilizing a wide variety of protocols, labels, semantics, etc., thus enabling one to exchange information with different wind power plants independently of a vendor. It is a subset of

Interoperability

For supporting the interoperability of the IEC 61400-25 standard, a user group was formed with a high degree of cooperation with user groups on

and

. Users, manufacturers, service providers, and system integrators with interest in the specific issues on interoperability are recommend to address the IEC 61400-25 user group.
