Abstract: Distributed grid network intelligence enables data aggregation at a local control node. In a consumer node, a meter is on a consumer side of a point of common coupling (PCC). The meter can receive one or more external grid inputs and one or more local sensor inputs. The grid inputs can come from sources outside the PCC, and the local sensor inputs monitor conditions at the PCC and/or within the PCC. The meter can identify power demand within the PCC and calculate an output power to generate with a local power converter. The calculation is not simply based on power demand, but on aggregation information, including the one or more external grid inputs, the one or more local sensor inputs, and the power demand for the local load. The local power converter can then output power in accordance with the calculated output power.

Abstract: Distributed grid network intelligence enables intelligent local energy storage backup control. A consumer node includes a local energy storage system. A distributed control node for the consumer node monitors local power demand and local energy generation. The control node calculates an interface operation for accessing energy from the local energy storage or charging the local energy storage, based on the local power demand and the local energy generation. The control node triggers a local power converter to execute the interface operation with the local energy storage.

Abstract: Data aggregation enables a local control response based on forecasted actions at a consumer node of a distributed grid network. A consumer node includes a local energy meter that receives grid condition information, including an aggregation of multiple inputs indicating an electrical condition of the grid network, local operating conditions at the PCC, and local power demand. The consumer node accesses rate information for the grid network indicating a consumer power price and a market power price. Based on the rate information and the aggregation information, the consumer node calculates an output power to generate with a local power converter, which outputs the power based in accordance with the calculation.

Abstract: Data aggregation enables a local control response based on forward prediction at a consumer node of a distributed grid network. A consumer node includes a local energy meter that receives grid condition information, including an aggregation of multiple inputs indicating an electrical condition of the grid network, local operating conditions at the PCC, and local power demand. The consumer node accesses operating history for a local control node, the operating history including records of previous power output for various grid conditions and operating conditions. Based on the operating history and the aggregation information, the consumer node calculates an output power to generate with a local power converter, which outputs the power based in accordance with the calculation.

Abstract: Data aggregation enables a local control response at a consumer node of a distributed grid network. A consumer node includes a local energy meter. The meter receives multiple inputs indicating an electrical condition of the grid network and local operating conditions. The meter can aggregate the grid network and local operation conditions inputs with power demand for a local load coupled to the consumer side of the point of common coupling monitored by the energy meter. The energy meter calculates a mix of real and reactive power to output from a local energy source, based on the aggregated data. A local power converter outputs the calculated power from the local energy source.
