>       
>          This document defines a framework for providing Energy
>          Management for devices and device components within or
>          connected to communication networks.  The framework
>          presents a physical reference model and information model.
>          The information model consists of an Energy Management
>          Domain as a set of Energy Objects. Each Energy Object is
>          identified, classified and given context.  Energy Objects
>          can be monitored and controlled with respect to Power,
>          Power State, Energy, Demand, Power Attributes, and Battery.
>          Additionally the framework models relationships and
>          capabilities between Energy Objects.
On the top of Jürgen's feedback on the abstract, I'm wondering: What is 
a "physical" reference model?

>       
>          Network management is often divided into the five main
>          areas defined in the ISO Telecommunications Management
>          Network model: Fault, Configuration, Accounting,
>          Performance, and Security Management (FCAPS) [X.700  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-X.700>].  Not
>          covered by this traditional management model is Energy
>          Management, which is rapidly becoming a critical area of
>          concern worldwide, as seen in [ISO50001  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-ISO50001>].
>       
>          This document defines an energy management framework for
>          devices within or connected to communication networks.  The
>          devices, or components of these devices (such as router
>          line cards, fans, disks), can then be monitored and
>          controlled.  Monitoring includes measuring power, energy,
>          demand, and attributes of power.  Energy control can be

power state -> Power State.
Some more instances: be consistent in terms of capitalization in the 
introduction.

>          If a device contains batteries, these can also be monitored
>          and controlled.
>       
>          This framework further describes how to identify, classify
>          and provide context for such devices.  While the context
>          information is not specific to Energy Management, some
>          context attributes are specified in the framework,
>          addressing the following use cases: how important is a
>          device in terms of its business impact, how should devices
>          be grouped for reporting and searching, and how should a
>          device role be described.  These context attributes help in
>          fault management and impact analysis while controlling the
>          power states.  Guidelines for using context for energy
>          management are described.
>       
>          The framework introduces the concept of a power interface
>          that is analogous to a network interface. A power interface
>          is defined as an interconnection among devices where energy
>          can be provided, received, or both.
>       
>          The most basic example of Energy Management is a single
>          device reporting information about itself.  In many cases,
>          however, energy is not measured by the device itself, but
>          measured upstream in the power distribution tree.  For
>          example, a power distribution unit (PDU) may measure the
>          energy it supplies to attached devices and report this to
>          an energy management system.  Therefore, devices often have
>          relationships to other devices or components in the power
>          network.  An EnMS (Energy Management System) generally
>          requires an understanding of the power topology (who
>          provides power to whom), the metering topology (who meters
>          whom), and an understanding of the potential aggregation
>          (ex: does a meter aggregate values from other devices).
>       
We need to introduce that there are different relationship types, to 
solve the different problems.
>          The relationships build on the power interface concept. The
>          different relationships among devices and components,
>          specified in this document, include: power source
>          relationship, metering relationship, and aggregation
>          relationship.

The final agreement on [EMAN-REQ] was 
http://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc6988.txt

    The terms specified in the terminology section are capitalized
    throughout the document; the exceptions are the well-known terms
    "energy" and "power".  These terms are generic and are used in
    generated terms such as "energy-saving", "low-power", etc.


I suggest you do the same.


I searched for a specific term in the terminology section, and realized 
that the order is not alphabetical.
A sentence such as: "The terms in the terminology section are not 
classified alphabetically, but the order has been chosen to improve the 
document readiness, with terms building on the top of each others"

energy management system -> Energy Management System

Pay attention to the terms capitalization in the figures as well. Here, we speak about
	device -> Device,
	monitoring -> Energy Monitoring
	control -> Energy Control

You removed the fact that ######## is energy.

Device versus device versus target device?

I'm wondering if we should not add the Power Interfaces in the figures.

One line of intro please: "concerns not addressed" is vague
Which concerns? Is "concerns" the right term? Should we have some 
concerns that some concerns are not addressed? :-)
Not addressed by this framework, I guess.
What you want to say is "out of scope of this framework", right?

interconnections = relationships
We introduced the notion of relationships already
Proposal:

         describe a means to report information, provide control,
         and model the relationships among physical entities
         (equipment).

Here, it's physical entities (equipment).
We had already device, Device, target device, Electrical Object

I finally get it, I think.
You really want to Energy Object to be an (instance of the) Device, 
Component, or Power Interface class in the information model.
The readers start with the terminology and since they don't know you 
will need an information model, they're puzzled by the Energy Object 
definition.
Proposal: whenever you mean the information model class, just mention
     Device Class
     Component Class
     etc.
As you did with the subtitles below.
And no need to define Energy Object in the terminology section. If you 
really want, insert the definition in this information model section 
here, along with the Device Class definition. Same thing for component.
Btw, the Energy Object is not a class but an instance of the class.

Does it?
It represents the attach point for the relationship. I see later:

         Power Source relationships are intended to identify the
         connections between Power Interfaces.

The Power Interface definition should be improved.

>
>
>       
>          In order to aid in reporting and in differentiation between
>          Energy Objects, each object optionally contains information
>          establishing its business, site, or organizational context
>          within a deployment.
>       
>          Energy Objects contain a category attribute that broadly
>          describes how the object is used in a deployment. The
>          category indicates if the Energy Object is primarily
>          functioning as a consumer, producer, meter, distributor or
>          store of energy.
>       
>          Given the category and context of an object, an EnMS can
>          summarize or analyze measurements. For example, metered
>          usage reported by a meter and consumption usage reported by
>          a device connected to that meter may measure the same
>          usage. With the two measurements identified by category and
>          context an EnMS can make summarizations and inferences.

>
>
>       
>          An Energy Object can provide an importance value in the
>          range of 1 to 100 to help rank a device's use or relative
>          value to the site.  The importance range is from 1 (least
>          important) to 100 (most important).  The default importance
>          value is 1.
>       
>          For example: A typical office environment has several types
>          of phones, which can be rated according to their business
>          impact.  A public desk phone has a lower importance (for
>          example, 10) than a business-critical emergency phone (for
>          example, 100).  As another example: A company can consider
>          that a PC and a phone for a customer-service engineer are
>          more important than a PC and a phone for lobby use.
>       
>          Although EnMS and administrators can establish their own

>       
>          An EMAN Power State Set represents an attempt at a standard
>          approach for modeling the different levels of power of a
>          device.  The EMAN Power States are an expansion of the
>          basic Power States as defined in [IEEE1621  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-IEEE1621>] that also
>          incorporates the Power States defined in [ACPI  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-ACPI>] and [DMTF  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-DMTF>].
>          Therefore, in addition to the non-operational states as
>          defined in [ACPI  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-ACPI>] and [DMTF  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-DMTF>] standards, several
>          intermediate operational states have been defined.
>       
>          An Energy Object may implement fewer or more Power States
>          than a particular EMAN Power State Set specifies. In this
>          case, the Energy Object implementation can determine its
>          own mapping to the predefined EMAN Power States within the
>          EMAN Power State Set.
>       
>          There are twelve EMAN Power States that expand on
>          [IEEE1621  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-IEEE1621>]. The expanded list of Power States is derived
>          from [CISCO-EW  <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-eman-framework-10#ref-CISCO-EW>] and is divided into six operational states
>          and six non-operational states.

>          Two Energy Objects can establish an Energy Object
>          Relationship to model the deployment topology with respect

>       
>          Relationships are modeled with a Relationship class that
>          contains the UUID of the participants in the relationship
>          and a description of the type of relationship. The types of
>          relationships are:  power source, metering, and
>          aggregations.
>       
>             o  The Power Source Relationship gives a view of the
>                physical wiring topology.  For example: a data center
>                server receiving power from two specific Power
>                Interfaces from two different PDUs.

>                change as the direction of power changes between two
>                Energy Objects. The relationship may remain to

>                metering topology.  Physical meters can be placed
>                anywhere in a power distribution tree.  For example,
>                utility meters monitor and report accumulated power

"Aggregation SHOULD be used for power and energy" is misleading
I guess you mean: "The Aggregation Relationship is intended for power and energy"

For the rest below.
Section 6 is a series of examples
I'm fine with section 7, 8, and 9 (IANA, which I wrote)

>          the summation of power and energy readings for many PDU
>          devices.  The PDU controller will have aggregate values for

>          Relationship where one Energy Object (called the Aggregate
>          Energy Object) aggregates the Energy Management information
>          of one or more other Energy Objects.  These Energy Objects
>          are said to have an Aggregation Relationship.
>       
>          The functions that the aggregation point may perform
>          include the calculation of values such as average, count,
>          maximum, median, minimum, or the listing (collection) of
