Release Roadmap

The GEISA project is working on several products that would enable grid edge interoperability that consists of:

GEISA Specification (Draft Target 6/30/2025) for:
- ADM: Application & Device Management
- API: Application Programming Interface
- EE: Execution Environment
Sample Implementation (Target Q3 2025) for a GEISA API and Execution Environment
Conformance Tests (Target Q1 2026) for each of the above specification

The specification should be sufficiently defined that a conformance test can be performed for each component of the specification. The above products define the minimal set of requirements to provide basic interoperability and a consistent environment for edge application developers.

Beyond GEISA 1.0

Future iterations of GEISA would expand the definition to increase interoperability and capability across the edge environment

GEISA 1.x
- More specific definitions for areas under existing categories that require further detail.
- https://lf-energy.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GEISA/pages/125304872
- Maintenance Requirements
GEISA 2.0
- Native Implementation as opposed to containerization
- Move towards Build Once vs. Write Once
- More API’s for other types of hardware support
