Abstract: Disclosed is a computerized method for dispatching energy from distributed resources in a discharge event so that the energy stored in individual devices is levelized, or so that an operator request is met. Evaluation of event parameters may be deferred. The method may be utilized to dispatch energy from plug-in electric vehicles. Systems and methods to account for electricity dispatched to or from electric vehicles are disclosed. Systems and methods for incentivizing consumers to participate in a dispatch event or curtail energy use are disclosed.

Abstract: A computerized method and system for monitoring at least one distributed energy generator, comprising: receiving utility bill information related to an existing utility of a customer, and measured energy information from the distributed energy generator of the customer; and generating a bill for measured energy from the distributed energy generator, the bill taking into account the utility bill information related to the existing utility.

Abstract: A system and method for automated trading of electrical consumption. A plurality of demand bids for energy on a power grid from a plurality of consumers are received, over a network. Each demand bid comprises an identification of a consumer, a quantity of energy, an economic value of the bid, and one or more demand bid criteria. Data relating to the price of energy on the power grid is received over the network. It is then determined, using at least one computing device, if not servicing at least one of the demand bids will decrease the locational marginal price of energy on the power grid. An offer for compensation is then transmitted, over the network, to the load associated with demand bids, wherein the consumer receives the compensation if the consumer does not consume the energy related to the at least one of the demand bids.
