  • Patent number: 11876374
    Abstract: Systems and method for optimal control of one or more energy storage systems are provided. Based on live, historical, and/or forecast data received from one or more data sources, one or more forecasts of one or more parameters relating to the operation of the one or more energy storage systems and an associated forecast uncertainty may be calculated by various forecasting techniques. Using one or more optimization techniques, an optimal dispatch schedule for the operation of the one or more energy storage systems may be created based on the forecasts. The optimal dispatch schedule may be used to determine one or more energy storage system parameters, which are used to control the operation of the energy storage systems.

  • Publication number: 20210344225
    Abstract: Systems and methods for optimal planning and real-time control of energy storage systems for multiple simultaneous applications are provided. Energy storage applications can be analyzed for relevant metrics such as profitability and impact on the functionality of the electric grid, subject to system-wide and energy storage hardware constraints. The optimal amount of storage capacity and the optimal operating strategy can then be derived for each application and be prioritized according to a dispatch stack, which can be statically or dynamically updated according to data forecasts. Embodiments can consist of both planning tools and real-time control algorithms.

  • Publication number: 20210182307
    Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a translation engine operably coupled to and associated with a first asset from a plurality of assets associated with an energy delivery system, a signal representing operational data from the first asset. The method also includes translating, via the translation engine, the operational data from a first protocol to a second protocol, thereby producing a first modified operational data. The method also includes translating, via the translation engine, at least one of a data label, a unit of measurement, or a value of the first modified operational data from a first data type to a second data type, to produce a second modified operational data. The method further includes sending a signal to cause storage of the second modified operational data in a repository accessible to a user.
