Problems solved by technology

Energy demand spikes can occur in distributed energy networks when a large number of customers shift their energy consumption following the same pattern
In addition, energy demand spikes can also introduce instability into the energy distribution infrastructure of distributed energy networks

Embodiment Construction

[0058] The following specific embodiments include exemplary systems, methods, techniques, instruction sequences, and computer program products for describing various embodiments of the present disclosure. However, it should be understood that the described embodiments can be implemented without these specific details. For example, while some examples refer to home energy systems, in other examples, the energy systems described herein can be implemented in offices, schools, hospitals, and other types of buildings. In other examples, in order not to obscure the description, well-known instruction examples, protocols, structures, and technologies are not shown in detail.

[0059] Power companies (also referred to as energy suppliers in this article) can use energy pricing schemes to reduce the energy demand of the distributed energy network during peak energy demand periods. For example, an energy supplier may set relatively high energy prices for peak demand periods (ie, peak hour...

Abstract

Distributed energy demand management mechanisms for a distributed energy network (120) are disclosed. In one example, a local energy controller (150) of a local energy system (120) determines projected energy demand information for a plurality of energy devices (122) of the local energy system based on energy pricing information (112) received from a central energy coordinator (110). The local energy controller modifies an energy consumption schedule during an energy pricing transition period based on energy access control information received from the central energy coordinator to manage a projected energy demand increase during the energy pricing transition period of the distributed energy network. In one example, the central energy coordinator determines the energy pricing information for the distributed energy network based on energy supply information and the projected energy demand information. The central energy coordinator determines the energy access control information based on the projected energy demand increase during the energy pricing transition period.

Description

[0001] Related application [0002] This application claims the priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 073,507 filed on October 31, 2014 and U.S. Application No. 14 / 697,137 filed on April 27, 2015. Technical field [0003] In a nutshell, the embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of distributed energy networks, and specifically, the present disclosure relates to managing energy demand in distributed energy networks. Background technique [0004] Power companies implement energy supply management mechanisms to ensure that they can provide enough energy to meet the energy needs of the distributed energy network. The distributed energy network (or grid) may include energy producers / generators, energy distribution infrastructure (for example, transmission lines and transformers), and energy consumers or local energy systems (for example, home / office energy systems). Generally, distributed energy networks have power plants and energy reserves that are offline...
