This part of the IEC 61970 series provides a set guidelines and general infrastructure capabilities required for the application of the EMS -API interface standards . This part of the IEC 61760 series describes typical integration scenarios where these standard are to be applied and the of types of application to be integrated . A reference model is defined to provide a framework for the application of the other parts of these EMS- API standard. This reference model is based on a component interfaces for information exchange between applications in a control center environment . While the primary objective of the EMS-API is to support the integration of applications within the control center applications and systems external to the control center environment , such as other control centers, ISOs RTOs and distribution systems, This standard describes the role of the other parts of the standards , including the common information model (CIM) in the IEC 61970-3XX series the component interface specifications (CIS) in the IEC 61970-4XX series and technology mappings in the IEC 61770 - %XX series.
