The ubiquitous power Internet of Things (UPIoT) is an intelligent service system with comprehensive state perception, efficient processing, and flexible application of information. It focuses on each link of the power system and makes full use of the mobile internet, artificial intelligence, and other advanced information and communication technologies in order to realize the inter-human interaction of all things in all links of the power system. This article systematically presents to the national and international organizations and agencies in charge of UPIoT layer standardization the status quo of the research on the Internet of Things (IoT)-related industry standards system. It briefly describes the generic standard classification methods, layered architecture, conceptual model, and system tables in the UPIoT application layer. Based on the principles of inheritance, innovation, and practicability, this study divides the application layer into customer service, power grid operation, integrated energy, and enterprise operation, emerging business and analyzes the standard requirements of these five fields. This study also proposes a standard plan. Finally, it summarizes the research report and provides suggestions for a follow-up work.
