  • Patent number: 11183872
    Abstract: Computer software and a system are disclosed to provide group control and network operations to/for a multiplicity of distributed energy storage units. The group control software and system can connect multiple individual distributed energy storage units and operate those units in synchronicity to create a large virtual energy storage device. Methods of controlling the distributed energy storage units include: a browser-based online user portal, or network-based, system-to-system protocols by third-party operation controllers.

  • Patent number: 10871768
    Abstract: A computer implemented method at an energy management system (EMS) controller apparatus for automatic generation of a SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) slave interface for an energy management system (EMS), includes storing a SCADA configuration file mapping SCADA data points to EMS data objects; providing the EMS data objects coded in statically typed programming language; providing site configuration information of the energy management system (EMS); scanning, by an object access framework (OAF), EMS data objects with EMS annotations and combining them with the site configuration information to generate an object binding repository (OBR); and compiling the SCADA configuration file to combine the SCADA data points mapping with the object binding repository to generate SCADA bindings information as part of the SCADA slave interface for the energy management system (EMS).
