Abstract: A system for providing a multi-modal control plane for device energy consumption and charging is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of devices each having a charging mechanism in selective electrical communication with an energy provider which supplies a charge to each of the plurality of devices via the charging mechanism. One or more reinterpretation layers translate the information received from the plurality of devices. A control plane receives the information from the plurality of devices and transmits the information to an aggregation service to collect the plurality of information, interpret the plurality of information, and to control and plan output of energy from the energy provider.
