Abstract: The increasing complexity of modern smart grids, driven by the integration of renewable energy sources, advanced communication technologies, and decentralized energy management, poses significant interoperability challenges. Existing frameworks often fail to capture the multi-layered relationships necessary for seamless data exchange and coordination among diverse stakeholders. This paper presents a domain ontology specifically designed to enhance interoperability within smart grid ecosystems. The proposed ontology formalizes essential concepts across three core layers--energy generation, distribution, and consumption--establishing structured relationships that facilitate semantic interoperability, automated reasoning, and knowledge integration. By providing a unified vocabulary, the ontology bridges communication gaps between utilities, consumers, regulators, and technology providers. Through case studies and illustrative examples, we demonstrate its effectiveness in improving data integration, enabling complex semantic queries, and fostering collaboration across the smart grid community.
