As an overview, excerpts from the document follow.

"This document summarizes the accomplishments of a three-year project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under its Grid Modernization Initiative, which is working across DOE to create the modern grid of the future. The project, titled 'Grid Modernization Laboratory Consortium (GMLC) 1.1: Metrics Analysis' (hereafter GMLC Metrics project) was undertaken by the Grid Modernization Laboratory Consortium (GMLC) Metrics team (hereafter GMLC Metrics team), which consists of national laboratory sub-teams each dedicated to developing one of six volumes in the set of reference documents about new grid metrics."

"This first volume describes the importance of metrics for grid modernization and then introduces the six categories of metrics DOE has developed to guide the Grid Modernization Initiative—(1) reliability, (2) resilience, (3) flexibility, (4) sustainability, (5) affordability, and (6) security. It then describes the approach the Grid Metrics team took to working directly with industry stakeholders to develop new grid metrics and demonstrate their use. This report is accompanied by six separate reference documents that provide more detail about the work of the GMLC Metrics sub-teams on each of the six metrics categories and assess the current uses of metrics in these each of the categories to inform grid modernization."
