Embodiment Construction

[0041] The transformation of the electricity grid to a smart grid is being promoted by many governments as a way to address issues of energy autonomy and continuity, global warming, and emergency restoration. Lighting systems will be one of the important building block systems of smart grids for dynamic load management services such as DR. To match electricity generation and transmission / use in such smart grids, many challenges coexist with dynamic load management. For example, existing load management strategies are event-driven and reactive, managing load (load shedding) only when a DR signal is received from the smart grid. Accordingly, Applicants have recognized and appreciated the need to provide methods and apparatus for proactively budgeting power usage of one or more lighting networks and managing the load of such lighting networks.

[0042] More generally, the applicant has recognized and appreciated that it would be advantageous to provide methods and apparatus rela...

Abstract

A method and a device relate to operating a plurality of lighting units of a lighting network according to energy demand and / or energy supply.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention is generally directed to the operation of lighting networks. More particularly, various inventive methods and apparatus disclosed herein relate to operating lighting networks based on energy demand and / or energy supply. Background technique [0002] Lighting comprises the majority of energy consumption in buildings and infrastructure. For example, in some cases lighting systems may consume about 20% of the energy used in a building and about 38% of the electricity used in a building. Furthermore, the majority of lighting usage occurs during periods of high energy consumption. [0003] The transformation of power grids to smart grids is being promoted by many governments as a way to address issues of energy autonomy and sustainability, global warming, and emergency restoration. The smart grid transforms the way electricity is generated, delivered, consumed and billed for. Adding intelligence throughout an interconnected electri...
