Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure describes a power adjustment process. The process for power distribution regulation includes filtering data from electrical sensors to provide conditioned data representative of a portion of a power distribution grid and determining, by a controller and based in part on the conditioned data, when an increase or decrease in an output parameter from one regulator of a plurality of regulators in the power distribution grid will reduce system power consumption. The process also includes increasing or decreasing the associated output electrical parameter in response to the controller determining that such will reduce system power consumption.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention includes a power adjustment apparatus. The apparatus includes a local controller and one or more sensors distributed within a power grid. The sensors are configured to assess conditions including power consumption and delivered voltage level and are configured to transmit data representative of the assessed conditions to the local controller. The apparatus also includes a device associated with the one or more sensors, configured to adjust an output power level in response to commands from the local controller. The device is deployed at an associated location within the power grid. The device is configured to increase an associated output electrical parameter when the local controller determines that such will reduce power consumption.
