SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

January 31, 2012, the Department of 

Energy, Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability (DOE OE) hosted 

the Smart Grid Privacy Workshop to 

facilitate a dialog among key industry 

stakeholders. In addition, on February 

23, 2012, the White House released the 

report, Consumer Data Privacy in a 

Networked World: A Framework for 

Protecting Privacy and Promoting 

Innovation in the Global Digital 

Economy (Privacy Blueprint). The 

Privacy Blueprint outlines a multistakeholder process for developing 

legally-enforceable voluntary codes of 

conduct (VCC) to help instill consumer 

confidence. In response to workshop 

findings and in support of the Privacy 

Blueprint, DOE OE and the Federal 

Smart Grid Task Force have facilitated 

a multi-stakeholder process to develop a 

VCC for utilities and third parties 

providing consumer energy use services 

that will address privacy related to data 

enabled by smart grid technologies. 

The DOE, through a notice published 

in the Federal Register on February 11, 

2013, requested electricity industry 

stakeholders to participate in the VCC 

multi-stakeholder process by attending 

open meetings and participating in work 

group activities to draft the VCC 

principles. The primary goal of the VCC 

process is to provide principles of 

conduct for voluntary adoption by 

utilities and third parties. After the 

December meeting, the finalized code of 

conduct will be posted at 

www.smartgrid.gov/privacy so that 

utilities and third parties can begin 

exploring adoption of the VCC. 

Audience: Stakeholders who may be 

interested in participating include—but 

are not limited to—utilities, consumer 

advocates, regulators, third party 

providers, building energy managers, 

academics, and home energy auditors.
