  • Publication number: 20240248445
    Abstract: An energy management system includes processing agents that each include a run function to provide a data request for energy-related data and generate an output. A messaging interface receives the energy-related data from data nodes associated with external organizations, power generating facilities, and/or other processing agents in response to the data request, publishes the energy-related data to the requesting processing agent, receives the output from the respective processing agent, and provides the output to other processing agents and/or data nodes. A simulation controller selectively replaces the energy-related data with simulation data for data nodes.

  • Patent number: 11043812
    Abstract: One example includes a forecast engine that generates forecast data that characterizes predicted operating conditions of an energy storage system for a given time period in the future, wherein the predicted operating conditions are based on a load history for a power consuming premises coupled to the energy storage system and on a value history for power provided to and consumed from a power grid. The load history of the power consuming premises characterizes unmetered power transferred to the power consuming premises, metered powered transferred from the power grid to the power consuming premises and metered powered exchanged from the energy storage system to the power grid. In the example, a schedule manager generates an operation schedule for operating the energy storage system. The operation schedule includes charge and discharge patterns for an energy storage source that are tuned to curtail power costs and/or elevate power revenue value.
