We would like to provide a brief overview of the status of international standardization work. The standardization work is carried out in Joint Working Group 16 (JWG 16) of IEC TC 3 and ISO/TC10/SC 1. We have several experts in tekom Europe who are also members in JWG 16, ensuring that the interests of our community are represented.
The Information Energy 2025 online conference, hosted by tcworld GmbH, has come to a close.

Here’s a look back at the key moments and highlights that made the conference a success.
With the approval of the New Work Item Proposal (NP) by IEC Technical Committee 3, iiRDS is one step closer to becoming an international standard.

Additionally, iiRDS is further embedded in Industry 4.0 with the publication of the IDTA submodel "Intelligent Information for Use," which is based on iiRDS.
