Smart grids facilitate the use of distributed and renewable resources on the supply side and providing consumers with a range of tailored services on the consumption side. The introduction of energy smart grid in Malaysia allows other stakeholders to reap the potential benefits it offers. However, for the stakeholders to share knowledge and collaborate, a common language that can act as intermediary that allows any application to communicate with each other is needed. Ontologies have been successful in integrating the knowledge required for solving complex problems such as energy management problems. Ontology has become a promising future direction towards devising a context-aware middleware platform for the smart grid. Hence, we propose to develop ontology for energy smart grid to support information integration for existing smart grid applications and to produce an efficient, semantically aware and operationally accurate software environment for managing flexibility in Malaysian energy distribution networks.
