[0512] Figure 1 Introduction to the platform and main components In this embodiment, an AI-based energy edge platform 102 is provided. For convenience, the AI-based energy edge platform is referred to herein simply as Platform 102. It includes a set of systems, subsystems, applications, processes, methods, modules, services, layers, devices, components, machines, products, interfaces, connections, and other cooperating elements to enable intelligent, and in some cases autonomous or semi-autonomous, coordination and management of electricity and energy in various ecosystems and environments. These ecosystems and environments include distributed entities (referred to herein in some cases as “distributed energy resources” or “DERs”) and other energy resources and systems that generate, store, consume, and / or transport energy, and include IoT, edge, and other devices and systems that process data related to DERs and other energy resources and can be used to notify, analyze, control, optimize, predict, and otherwise assist in the coordination of distributed energy resources and other energy resources.

[0513] For example, distributed energy (“DER”) can include (but is not limited to): wind turbines (including wind turbine farms), solar photovoltaic (PV), flexible and / or floating solar systems (including solar power plants), fuel cells (including fuel cells that burn natural gas and fuel cells that burn biomass), coal mines, oil wells, natural gas wells, modular nuclear reactors, nuclear batteries, modular hydropower systems, microturbines and turbine arrays, reciprocating engines, gas turbines, combined heat and power plants, biomass generators, municipal solid waste incinerators, battery energy storage (including chemical batteries, etc.), capacitor energy storage, geothermal energy systems, molten salt energy storage, electrothermal energy storage (ETES), gravity-based energy storage, compressed fluid energy storage, pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), liquid air energy storage (LAES), coal storage facilities, oil storage tanks, natural gas storage tanks, liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks, physical energy storage systems such as flywheels, gravity batteries (e.g., material suspended in a gravity well), fuel transport vehicles, fuel transport pipelines, wired power transmission systems, wireless power transmission systems, etc.

[0514] In this embodiment, platform 102 implements a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108, which have a wide range of functions, applications, capabilities, and uses, and can be implemented by using or coordinating a set of advanced energy resources and systems 104 (including DERs, etc.), but are not limited thereto. This set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108 can integrate, for example, domain-specific stakeholder data (e.g., proprietary datasets generated in relation to enterprise operations, analytics, and / or strategies), real-time data from stakeholder assets (e.g., data collected by IoT and edge devices located near stakeholder assets and operations), stakeholder-specific energy resources and systems 104 (e.g., available energy generation, storage, or distribution systems that can be located at stakeholder locations to enhance or replace the power grid) into solutions that meet the energy needs and capabilities of stakeholders, including baseline, cyclical, and peak energy demands for operations such as large-scale data processing, transportation, cargo and material production, resource extraction and processing, heating and cooling.

[0515] In this embodiment, platform 102 (and / or its components) and / or the stakeholder energy advantage solution 108 configured with this group can acquire, provide, and / or exchange data with a set of data resources 110 used for energy edge coordination. Platform 102 obtains information from the set of data resources 110 used for energy edge coordination. These data resources may include datasets ranging from real-time energy consumption metrics to predictive analytics of future energy demand. By using these resources, platform 102 is able to make timely and informed decisions. Platform 102 is also equipped to provide data to the set of data resources 110 used for energy edge coordination. This data may include feedback on energy optimization strategies, insights derived from AI analytics, and / or even raw data collected from various sensors and nodes within the energy infrastructure. This feedback loop ensures that the data resources remain up-to-date, contributing to more accurate and dynamic energy management. Furthermore, the stakeholder energy advantage solution 108, configured with this group to meet the unique needs of various stakeholders, can contribute data to platform 102 and gain insights from platform 102. For example, a stakeholder solution designed for a solar power plant can provide real-time data on solar panel efficiency, which platform 102 can then use to optimize energy distribution. This data exchange between platform 102, a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108, and a set of data resources 110 for energy edge coordination ensures that optimization is based on the latest available data.

[0516] Platform 102 may include a set of intelligent support systems 112, a set of AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems 114, and a set of configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118, which are integrated with, exchange data with, and / or otherwise linked to. The set of intelligent support systems 112 acts as the cognitive hub of platform 102. Utilizing advanced algorithms and computing tools, the set of intelligent support systems 112 endows platform 102 with the necessary intelligence to analyze large datasets, identify patterns, and make informed decisions. The set of AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems 114 ensures platform 102 achieves efficiency and adaptability. By coordinating energy sources, optimizing energy flows, and automating processes, the set of AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems 114 transforms platform 102 into a dynamic entity, responding to real-time changes and proactively taking strategic actions. The set of configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 provides platform 102 with modular and customizable flexibility. Depending on specific use cases, stakeholders can configure these modules to meet their unique needs.

[0517] The intelligent support system 112 may include a set of intelligent data layers 130 for managing and processing information; a set of distributed ledger and smart contract systems 132 for ensuring secure and transparent transaction and data management; a set of adaptive energy digital twin systems 134 for creating virtual copies of physical energy assets for better monitoring and optimization; and / or a set of energy simulation systems 136 for modeling potential energy scenarios to aid decision-making. These integrated systems work together within the set of intelligent support systems 112 to provide a comprehensive solution for advanced energy management.

[0518] This set of AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems 114 may include a set of energy generation coordination systems 138 for managing and coordinating energy production sources, a set of energy consumption coordination systems 140 for monitoring and optimizing how energy is used, a set of energy market coordination systems 146 for facilitating energy trade and transactions, a set of energy transmission coordination systems 147 for ensuring efficient and reliable energy distribution, and a set of energy storage coordination systems 142 for managing energy storage. Together, these systems provide a holistic approach to coordinating the entire energy lifecycle.

[0519] The group of configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 may include a set of energy trading support systems 144 that facilitate and simplify energy-related transactions, a set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148 that provide a virtual representation of stakeholder-specific energy assets for better monitoring and management, and a set of data integration microservices 150 that can support or help support stakeholder energy advantage solutions 108 configured in this group, thereby ensuring an integrated approach to energy management.

[0520] Platform 102 may include one or more artificial intelligence (AI) systems, integrate with it, link with it, exchange data with it, be managed by it, receive input from it and / or provide output to it. The artificial intelligence (AI) systems may include models, rule-based systems, expert systems, neural networks, deep learning systems, supervised learning systems, robotic process automation systems, natural language processing systems, intelligent agent systems, self-optimizing and self-organizing systems, and other systems described in this disclosure and in references incorporated herein by reference. Unless the context specifically indicates otherwise, references to AI or one or more examples of AI should be understood to encompass these various alternative methods and systems; for example, but not limited to, AI systems described for supporting any of the various functions, capabilities, and solutions described herein (e.g., optimization, autonomous operation, prediction, control, coordination, etc.) should be understood to be capable of being implemented by manipulating a model or set of rules; by training on training datasets with human labels, tags, etc.; by training on training datasets with human interaction (e.g., human interaction with software interfaces or hardware systems); by training on training datasets of results; by training on training datasets generated by AI (e.g., where the complete training dataset is generated by AI from a seed training dataset); by supervised learning; by semi-supervised learning; by deep learning; and so on. For any given function or capability described herein, various types of neural networks can be used, including any types described herein or in references incorporated herein, and in embodiments, a set of hybrid neural networks may be selected such that within that set, the type of neural network is more conducive to performing each element of a multifunctional or multi-capability system or method. As one example among many, deep learning or black-box systems can use gated recurrent neural networks to achieve functions such as language translation by intelligent agents, where users do not need to understand the underlying mechanisms of AI operation as long as they perceive the results favorably. More transparent models or systems and simpler neural networks can be used for systems that automate governance, where a better understanding of how inputs are transformed into outputs to comply with regulations or policies may be required.

[0521] AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems In this embodiment, platform 102 may employ demand forecasting, including automated forecasting via artificial intelligence or by acquiring forecast information from a data stream from a third party. Furthermore, forecasting demand helps guide site selection and intelligent planning for network expansion. In this embodiment, machine learning algorithms may generate multiple forecasts—e.g., regarding weather, prices, solar power generation, energy demand, and other factors—and analyze how energy assets can best capture or generate value at different times and / or locations.

[0522] In this embodiment, the AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system 114 can optimize energy patterns, for example, by analyzing energy use in a building or other operation and seeking to reshape patterns for optimization (e.g., by modeling demand responses to various stimuli). By analyzing energy consumption trends, the AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system 114 can identify areas of waste or inefficiency. For example, these systems can assess how a building's energy consumption varies at different times of day or across different seasons. Using this knowledge, the automation system 114 can then reshape these patterns for optimal energy use. This can be applied in commercial office buildings, where the AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system 114 can notice energy consumption peaks in the early afternoon due to the simultaneous use of lighting, heating, and cooling systems. By modeling how a building might respond to certain stimuli, for example, by optimizing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems based on real-time occupancy data, the AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system 114 can suggest measures to distribute energy consumption more evenly throughout the day, thereby reducing peak demand and associated costs.

[0523] The AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system 114 can be implemented by a set of intelligent support systems 112, which provide the functionality and capabilities to support a range of applications and use cases.

[0524] In an embodiment, platform 102 can be configured to integrate data from at least one internal edge device located within the environment (e.g., sensors within buildings, vehicles, machines, utilities) and at least one external edge device located outside the environment (e.g., sensors on weather monitoring stations broadcasting real-time data, vehicles, etc.). Platform 102 can collect real-time energy intelligence data and provide it to an intelligent circuit that is trained on the data and results and automatically executes actions to optimize energy management. For example, an edge device connected to the DER can be combined with an edge device from a local weather monitoring station. Local weather data (e.g., cloud cover, temperature, wind speed, rainfall, etc.) can be correlated with energy output from the DER, and a machine learning model can be trained to use variables from a second edge device to predict actions associated with the environment of the first edge device. By another example, radar characteristics output by a weather station edge device can be used to upshift or downshift energy from the DER.

[0525] In this embodiment, data output from one or more edge devices can be vectorized and / or stored in a distributed database. By using vector-based data updates, energy data captured from devices can be further optimized, where only changes affecting the consumption information model are transmitted. This vector can be developed based on the analysis of data from the aforementioned consuming devices. The vector for a complex energy consumption system can be a multi-dimensional vector representing consumption type, purpose, device, etc., to form an efficient way of transmitting complex energy usage environments. For example, consider a smart grid system where thousands of home appliances, HVAC systems, and lighting solutions continuously send energy consumption data. Instead of sending minute-by-minute details, this system analyzes this data and develops vectors based on consumption patterns. This vector, especially for a complex energy consumption system, can include various parameters, such as consumption type, consumption purpose, energy consumption of specific devices, etc.

[0526] In embodiments, energy usage patterns may include local patterns, such as those based on a consumer's daily work schedule. However, energy usage patterns may be based on broader data, including weather forecast data; energy consumption in areas currently affected by weather systems to prepare for forecasting the reception of such systems; and so on. Pattern analysis may include not only raw usage but also information about the consumer (e.g., the energy-consuming devices they are operating) that may influence learning. For example, a consumer's daily work schedule may be a local pattern that the system can recognize and adapt to, which could involve turning off all household appliances during work hours and increasing energy consumption at night.

[0527] Demographics and other human activities can play a role in energy pattern analysis. In one example, demographics suggesting that consumers in a region replace older vehicles with newer ones more frequently than in other regions might indicate that local energy demand for electric vehicle charging is likely to increase more rapidly in those areas. When demographics and / or consumer behavior suggest that consumers in a region tend to replace vehicles with used ones, conventional energy maintenance may be indicated as the preferred option in those regions.

[0528] Subsystems and modules of intelligent support system Intelligent Data Layer A set of intelligent support systems 112 may include a set of intelligent data layers 130, such as a set of services (including microservices), APIs, interfaces, modules, applications, programs, etc., which can consume any of the data entities and types described in this disclosure and undertake a wide range of processing functions, such as extraction, cleaning, normalization, computation, transformation, loading, batch processing, streaming, filtering, routing, parsing, conversion, pattern recognition, content recognition, object recognition, etc. Through a set of interfaces, users of platform 102 can configure a set of intelligent data layers 130 or their outputs to meet internal platform needs and / or support further configuration, for example, for a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108. A set of intelligent data layers 130, more typically a set of intelligent support systems 112 and / or configurable data and intelligent modules and services 118 can access data from various sources throughout platform 102 and, in embodiments, can operate from this set of shared data resources, which may be contained in a centralized database and / or a set of distributed databases, or may consist of a set of distributed or decentralized data sources, such as IoT or edge devices producing energy-related event logs or streams. A set of intelligent data layers 130 can be configured for a wide range of energy-related tasks, such as forecasting / predicting parameters of energy consumption, generation, storage, or distribution (e.g., at the level of a single device, subsystem, system, machine, or fleet); optimizing energy generation, storage, distribution, or consumption (also at different levels of optimization); automated discovery, configuration, and / or execution of energy transactions (including micro and / or large transactions in spot and futures markets and peer-to-peer group or single-counter transactions); monitoring and tracking parameters and properties of energy consumption, generation, distribution, and / or storage (e.g., baseline levels, volatility, cyclical patterns, incidental events, peak levels, etc.); monitoring and tracking energy-related parameters and properties (e.g., pollution, carbon production, renewable energy credits, waste heat production, etc.); automatically generating energy-related alerts, recommendations, and other content (e.g., messaging to prompt or encourage beneficial user behavior); and so on.

[0529] In an embodiment, platform 102 can be configured to analyze monitored energy datasets and generate configuration recommendations for energy generation and consumption in a distributed system. Platform 102 can be configured to analyze flows from one or more local power consumption entities and generate recommendations. For example, a manufacturing plant may have a range of needs that are very different from those of a hospital campus. Thus, an AI-based platform can analyze each of the multiple energy consumption scenarios and the associated equipment and needs, and recommend the type of DER (Energy Controller) used to provide energy and regulate the energy demand and needs corresponding to the local power consumption entities. A hospital's ER may have a specific set of needs, such as operating room opening hours or emergency needs based on emergencies. Examples of monitored energy datasets may include one or more grid-based energy resources and mobile energy resources. Grid-based energy resources may include, for example, fossil fuel-based energy production facilities (coal, oil, natural gas, etc.) and renewable energy-based production facilities (solar power plants, wind power plants, geothermal generators, tidal generators, hydroelectric power facilities, etc.). Mobile energy resources may include, for example, mobile battery devices, mobile fossil fuel generators, mobile renewable energy producers, mobile transformers and power regulation systems, drone-based power transmission / storage systems, vehicle-based power transmission / storage systems, etc.

[0530] Distributed ledger and smart contract systems A set of smart support systems 112 may include a smart contract system 132 for processing a set of smart contracts, each of which may optionally operate on a set of blockchain-based distributed ledgers. Each smart contract may operate on data stored in this set of distributed ledgers or blockchains, for example, to record energy-related transaction events, such as energy procurement and sales (in spot, forward, and peer-to-peer markets, as well as direct counterparty transactions), related service fees, etc.; transaction-related energy events, such as consumption, generation, distribution, and / or storage events; and other transaction-related events typically associated with energy, such as carbon generation or reduction events, renewable energy credit events, pollution generation or reduction events, etc. This set of smart contracts processed by smart contract system 132 may consume any data types and entities of the data types and entities described in this disclosure as a set of inputs, undertake a set of computations (optionally configured in a stream of inputs from different systems in a multi-step transaction), and provide a set of outputs that enable the completion of transactions, reporting (optionally recorded on a set of distributed ledgers), etc. A set of energy trading support systems 144 may be supported or enhanced by artificial intelligence, including autonomously discovering, configuring and executing trades based on strategies and / or providing automation or semi-automation of trades based on the training and / or supervision of a set of trading experts.

[0531] In this embodiment, the smart contract system 132 may be configured with a set of energy trading support systems 144 (described elsewhere in this disclosure) to provide trading solutions. Each smart contract within the smart contract system 132 is sophisticatedly designed to process data stored within these distributed ledgers or blockchains. The functionality of the smart contracts extends to recording a variety of energy-related transaction events. This includes, but is not limited to, recording peer-to-peer energy transactions, or even direct transactions between parties. Furthermore, data related to energy events associated with service fees and other transactions is captured, including information about energy consumption, generation, distribution, and storage. For example, in a city's energy grid with integrated renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, the smart contract system 132 can autonomously execute contracts to purchase solar energy during peak sunshine hours and wind energy during windy periods. Simultaneously, each transaction, associated service fees, and even carbon offsetting achieved through the use of renewable resources are recorded.

[0532] Adaptive Energy Digital Twin System In embodiments, any entities, analytical results, AI outputs, states, operational conditions, or other characteristics mentioned in this disclosure may be represented in a digital twin, such as a widely applicable set of adaptive energy digital twin systems 134 and / or a set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148 configured to meet the needs of specific stakeholders or stakeholder solutions. A set of adaptive energy digital twin systems 134 may, for example, provide visual or analytical metrics of energy consumption for a set of machines, a group of plants, a fleet of vehicles, etc.; subsets thereof (e.g., comparing the energy parameters of each machine in a set of similar machines to identify out-of-range behavior); and many other aspects. The digital twin may be adaptive, for example, filtering, highlighting, or otherwise adjusting the presented data based on real-time conditions (e.g., changes in energy costs, changes in operational behavior, etc.).

[0533] In embodiments, platform 102 can be configured to create, manage, and / or otherwise provide dynamic digital twins of historical, current, and projected distributed energy demand based on mobile and stationary entities within a domain. For example, relatively large corporate or organizational environments can be modeled via digital twins, such as industrial environments, factory environments, distribution centers, hospital environments, university / college environments, office building environments, mining operations, etc. In a specific example, for a manufacturing facility with numerous machines, assembly lines, and automated systems, platform 102 can create a digital twin of that environment, capturing every detail of its energy consumption patterns. Such a digital twin can provide real-time information about the plant's energy demand, from historical energy usage data for each machine to current consumption rates, and even projected future energy demand based on forecasted production schedules. Larger environments can be modeled where costs can be significantly transferred based on energy adjustments across the entire environment. For example, in large, energy-intensive environments, even small adjustments can have a significant financial impact. By having dynamic digital twins, stakeholders can simulate various energy adjustments and analyze their effects. For example, in an office building environment, adjusting the operation of the HVAC system based on real-time occupancy data or optimizing lighting based on the availability of natural daylight can significantly transfer energy costs.

[0534] In embodiments, platform 102 can be configured to model government entities, such as states, counties, cities, towns, development zones, communities, etc., via one or more digital twins. In one example, for a city with thousands or hundreds of thousands of residents, businesses, public transportation systems, and numerous facilities, platform 102 can create a digital twin of such a city, capturing every aspect of its energy consumption. This digital representation might include everything from lighting in public parks and HVAC systems in government buildings to the energy demands of public transportation systems. By doing so, platform 102 provides city managers with a holistic view of the city's energy footprint, aiding in informed decisions regarding energy management. Platform 102 can even model larger entities, such as states or counties, capturing the varying energy demands across different areas, from city centers to rural regions. On the other hand, platform 102 can also represent smaller entities, such as towns. For example, in a new town being developed for industrial use, platform 102 can model anticipated energy demands based on planned industries, ensuring that energy infrastructure is adequately prepared to meet those demands. In another example, a county planning a transition to renewable energy could use its digital twin to simulate the impact of integrating solar power plants or wind turbines. This simulation can provide insights into potential energy savings, grid stability, and even the environmental benefits of this transition.

[0535] In an embodiment, platform 102 may include an AI-based system for updating a digital twin based on a set of energy parameters. This may include adapting energy consumption data from the physical device for the digital twin to these parameters, for example, by adjusting the costs resulting from energy consumption based on a dynamic energy market where the device provides energy. For instance, consider a device that obtains its energy from a dynamic energy market where energy costs fluctuate based on demand, supply, and other market factors. If the device consumes energy at a time of higher costs, the AI-based system can adjust the digital twin to reflect this, ensuring the virtual representation accurately reflects the financial impact of real-world energy consumption. When updating the device, the AI-based system may also incorporate the energy source preferences of the device's users (optionally, as expressed in the device's digital twin). For example, if a user expresses a preference for green energy through their device's digital twin, the AI ​​system ensures that this preference is incorporated into the energy consumption data update. For shared devices (e.g., e-bikes), energy consumed during user sharing of the device and / or associated with user sharing of the device (when the e-bike is billed in the user's account) may be allocated to / across specific energy sources based on the user profile. For example, when a user checks out an e-bike on their user account, the energy consumed during their use can specifically come from their preferred energy source, as detailed in their user profile associated with the user account. Additionally or alternatively, the owner of the device and / or digital twin can identify the allocation of consumed energy to each of multiple energy sources. For instance, there might be a situation where the device owner has a specific allocation for energy consumed across multiple energy sources. In this case, the AI ​​system ensures that the digital twin accurately reflects this allocation. For example, the owner might specify that 50% of the energy consumed by the device should come from wind power and the remaining 50% from hydropower. When updating the digital twin, the AI ​​system can ensure that this allocation is accurately represented. Therefore, platform 102 with an AI-based system provides a digital twin that is not merely a static representation but dynamic, responsive, and adaptable to individual preferences and real-world scenarios.

[0536] In embodiments, an AI-based system for updating a digital twin based on a set of energy parameters may include adapting energy production and / or distribution controls based on these parameters for an upcoming time period (e.g., during an upcoming high-demand event). This may include adjusting the operation of an energy supply system by relying on AI-based energy demand forecasts for a future period, such as determining energy parameters related to how much energy is stored versus how much is generated and delivered. For example, in the presence of anticipated high-demand events, perhaps due to holidays, an AI-based system can predict such demand surges by analyzing energy parameters and adapt energy production and / or distribution controls accordingly. In another example, based on past data and current trends, an AI-based system can predict increased energy demand during summer months. Beyond AI-based energy demand forecasting, AI-based systems can assess macroeconomic trends / activities based on energy parameters. In one example, an AI-based system updating an energy consumption system can detect pricing patterns that indicate a potential sharp increase in energy costs (e.g., due to major weather events), and this set of energy parameters can guide the AI-based system to adapt energy consumption and / or storage guidelines for at least selected consumers (e.g., public systems (e.g., tax-based systems) to avoid unnecessary burdens on taxpayers). For example, if an AI-based system detects a pattern indicating that energy costs may increase due to an upcoming major weather event, proactive measures can be taken. By analyzing this set of energy parameters, the AI-based system can guide certain consumers to adapt their energy consumption or storage patterns, or guide public systems to reduce consumption or increase storage. Therefore, platform 102 with an AI-based system ensures that energy management is proactive and effective.

[0537] In an embodiment, platform 102 can be configured to provide and / or facilitate digital twins of common device types (e.g., e-bikes of the same model). The digital twins can exchange consumption data across a range of use cases to understand how this common device type consumes energy in different environments, at different times of day, in different geographic locations, and with varying user demographics (including local demographics at the point of use). For example, an e-bike used primarily in hilly areas may exhibit different energy consumption patterns compared to an e-bike used in a flat urban environment. By aggregating data from various digital twins, platform 102 can identify these patterns and make informed predictions. This allows the digital twin of a specific device (a particular e-bike) to better predict energy demand, resulting in dynamic charging profiles, etc. Some devices may be located in high-demand areas, indicating a need for more frequent charging, while others may allow for lower average energy costs due to, for example, shorter and less frequent use. For instance, an e-bike located in a busy city center might be identified as requiring frequent charging due to high demand; on the other hand, another e-bike located in a less frequently used area might function well even without frequent charging. This also allows for the aggregation of demand profiles across a range of geographic areas to identify needs, such as charging requirements and available energy. For example, in areas with a high concentration of e-bikes (e.g.), platform 102 can suggest staggered charging schedules to balance demand and prevent grid overload. This can lead to the management of e-bike charging activities, including demand balancing for other charging facilities within a region.

[0538] In an embodiment, platform 102 can be configured such that not every physical instance of a device (e.g., a specific model of e-bike) needs to have its own permanent digital twin. Most such devices have a much longer dormant period than their usage time (very low duty cycles), so even the energy requirements supporting the digital twin processing of such devices can be managed according to demand curves. Instances of physical devices (or configured genetic instances) can be activated based on demand forecasts (and energy resources can be allocated). Consider the scenario of a specific model of e-bike. While these e-bikes may be scattered in different locations and readily available, their actual use or "duty cycle" may not be frequent, and these devices may remain dormant for extended periods. Understanding this unique characteristic, platform 102 is configured such that it can activate digital twins for these devices based on predicted demand, rather than maintaining a continuous digital twin for each e-bike. For example, in an urban environment, if platform 102 predicts a surge in demand for e-bikes during, for example, the morning rush hour, it can activate the digital twins of the e-bikes during that period. These digital twins can facilitate energy management, ensuring that e-bikes are fully charged and readily available. After peak hours, these digital twins can be deactivated to conserve processing energy. This demand-driven approach ensures that energy resources used to process digital twins are used optimally.

[0539] In embodiments, platform 102 can provide and / or facilitate the sharing, exchange, and / or aggregation of energy consumption data provided to a digital twin by physical device instances. This energy consumption data can be collected to establish a set of energy demand parameters for predicting energy demand models, etc. For example, platform 102 is designed to facilitate the exchange and aggregation of energy consumption data from various physical device instances and direct it to their respective digital twins. Consider, for instance, a community with multiple smart homes, each equipped with multiple smart devices. While each household may have its unique energy consumption patterns, the collective data from all these households can reveal broader trends. By aggregating this data, platform 102 can identify patterns, such as increased energy consumption or decreased demand during holidays. These insights can then inform predictive models, ensuring energy suppliers are adequately prepared to meet anticipated demand.

[0540] In an embodiment, platform 102 can be configured such that energy consumption data provided to the digital twin can also help predict energy-related demand, such as the maintenance of energy supply infrastructure. For example, the need to address energy production waste can be better predicted not only based on consumption but also based on the supply sources available to the digital twin. In other words, physical equipment not only consumes energy but must also be supplied with energy (or must generate energy itself). The digital twin can use energy supply and / or source to indicate the time / region / specific source supporting energy production (waste removal, refurbishment, etc.). For example, if a local energy production facility relies primarily on non-renewable resources, it will generate higher levels of associated waste. By predicting this, the digital twin can ensure that appropriate waste management measures are in place. Furthermore, the digital twin of a local energy production facility can utilize predicted demand from the energy consumption digital twin to address not only production issues but also upstream procurement issues. For example, if the predicted demand for electric bicycles for upcoming events (graduation, birthdays, etc.) (again, electric bicycles as an example) can be predicted along with, for example, the expected availability of energy generated by solar power, the local energy supply station can supply upstream energy only when needed and / or as required. For example, if solar energy forecasts are favorable, the power station can rely primarily on solar energy; otherwise, the power station can obtain energy from upstream energy suppliers to meet its needs.

[0541] Energy Simulation System In this embodiment, a set of energy simulation systems 136 is provided, for example, for developing and evaluating detailed simulations of energy generation, demand response, and charge management. This includes simulation environments that simulate the results using various algorithms that can manage the generation of various power generation assets, the consumption of energy-requiring equipment and systems, and energy storage. Data can be used to simulate uncontrollable loads and optimize charging process interactions, as well as other use cases. The simulation environment can provide outputs to, integrate with, or share data with this set of adaptive energy digital twin systems 134. For example, if a city plans to transition to renewable energy, it can use the set of energy simulation systems 136 to simulate various outcomes. Such simulations can predict how solar panels will respond to changing weather conditions, how wind turbines will operate in different seasons, or how energy storage solutions will need to be managed during peak demand periods.

[0542] In this embodiment, as more enterprises adopt hybrid infrastructure, uptime becomes more complex, requiring backup and failover strategies across cloud, colocation, on-premises, and edge infrastructure. This can include AI-based algorithms for automatically managing the energy of devices and systems within such devices. For example, artificial intelligence can support autonomous data center cooling and industrial control. In this embodiment, distributed energy or DER 128 can be integrated into or integrated with, for example, AI-driven computing infrastructure, intelligent power distribution units (PDUs), uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, energy-supported airflow management systems, and HVAC systems. By simulating energy scenarios, this set of energy simulation systems 136 ensures seamless and sustainable operation for enterprises, regardless of their infrastructure model.

[0543] Introduction to the main subsystems and modules of an AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation system A set of AI-based energy coordination, optimization, and automation systems 114 may include a set of energy generation coordination systems 138, a set of energy consumption coordination systems 140, a set of energy storage coordination systems 142, a set of energy market coordination systems 146, and a set of energy transmission coordination systems 147, etc. For example, the set of energy transmission coordination systems 147 can support the coordination of energy delivery to consumption points, such as via fixed transmission lines, wireless energy transmission, fuel delivery, and the delivery of stored energy (e.g., chemical or nuclear batteries), and may involve autonomously optimizing the mix of energy types from the aforementioned available resources based on various factors, such as consumption location (e.g., based on distance from the grid), purpose, or type (e.g., whether very high peak energy delivery is required, e.g., for power-intensive production processes). Consider a remote industrial unit far from the main grid whose production processes require electricity. The set of energy generation coordination systems 138 can analyze the location and determine that connecting such a unit to the main grid may not be feasible. Instead, the set of energy generation coordination systems 138 can suggest that a combination of wireless energy transmission and chemical battery delivery may be most suitable in this case.

[0544] Configurable data and intelligence modules and services In an embodiment, platform 102 may include a set of configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118. These may include a set of energy trading support systems 144, a set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148, a set of data integration microservices 150, etc. Each module or service (optionally configured in a microservice architecture) may exchange data with various data resources to provide relevant outputs, such as supporting a set of internal functions or capabilities of platform 102 and / or supporting a set of functions or capabilities of one or more of a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108. As one example among many, a service may be configured to acquire event data from an IoT device with cameras or sensors monitoring a generator and integrate it with weather data from a public data resource 162 to provide a weather-related timeline of energy generation data from the generator, which may in turn be consumed by a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108, for example, to assist the generator's daytime energy generation based on daytime weather forecasts. Platform 102 can support a wide range of such data and intelligence modules and services 118, representing, for example, various outputs composed of the fusion or combination of a wide range of energy edge data sources processed by the platform, higher-level analytical outputs generated by expert analysis of data, forecasting and prediction based on data patterns, automation and control outputs, etc.

[0545] In embodiments, platform 102 can be configured to enable energy-consuming devices and / or systems (e.g., a group of energy-consuming devices in a home) to locally arbitrate access to energy sources, such as trunk energy, primary energy storage (e.g., at the device), local energy storage (e.g., a local battery that can supply energy to multiple devices), etc. Furthermore, devices can consume energy for various purposes, such as consumption, storage, balancing sources, acting as proxies for other devices, etc. Additionally, energy-consuming devices can be configured / can be configured to use multiple energy types, such as the grid, solar, geothermal, fossil fuels (internal combustion engines), hydrogen, etc. Furthermore, in an energy-consuming system (a group of devices as described above), energy consumption can span a range of energy sources (e.g., hydrogen for cooking, solar for energy storage, waste recycling, etc.). For example, consider a home equipped with multiple energy-consuming devices, each with its unique energy needs and preferences. Platform 102 can facilitate a dynamic environment where these devices can locally arbitrate access to various energy sources based on their immediate needs and available resources. For example, on a sunny day, the solar panels in a house may generate excess energy. In this case, platform 102 can primarily utilize the energy from the solar panels, reducing energy consumption from the grid.

[0546] In this embodiment, platform 102 can capture energy consumption information from / via edge devices and develop datasets representing multiple perspectives on energy consumption. Edge devices, which can communicate with a range of energy-consuming devices and device types (e.g., locally or very close), can collect data about the devices, including, for example, which sources the device can consume, what kind of source the device consumes, the purpose / use of the consumed energy, etc. Further examples may include what appears to be that the device performs any kind of optimization, such as utilizing local storage during periods of high energy costs (including high transmission costs that may be measured based on transmission efficiency, etc.), consuming energy during off-peak periods to supplement storage, and / or utilizing low-cost sources (e.g., solar energy) when readily available. Various analytics, etc., can be generated, captured, and used within the energy management system. For example, consider a smart plug connected to a refrigerator that can provide insights into its energy consumption patterns, revealing details such as its preference for utilizing local storage during periods of high energy costs. By aggregating this data from various edge devices, platform 102 can identify patterns, predict future energy needs, and optimize energy consumption across devices.

[0547] Energy Trading Support System Configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 may include a set of energy trading support systems 144. This set of energy trading support systems 144 may include a set of smart contracts that can operate on data stored in this set of distributed ledgers or blockchains, for example, to record energy-related transaction events, such as energy procurement and sales (in spot, forward, and peer-to-peer markets, as well as direct counterparty transactions), related service fees; transaction-related energy events, such as consumption, generation, distribution, and / or storage events, and other typically energy-related transaction-related events, such as carbon generation or reduction events, renewable energy credit events, pollution generation or reduction events, etc. This set of smart contracts can consume any data type and entity of the data types and entities described in this disclosure as a set of inputs, undertake a set of computations (optionally configured in a stream of inputs from different systems in a multi-step transaction), and provide a set of outputs that enable the completion of transactions, reporting (optionally recorded on a set of distributed ledgers), etc. This energy trading support system 144 can be supported or enhanced by artificial intelligence, including autonomously discovering, configuring, and executing trades based on strategies and / or providing automation or semi-automation of trades based on the training and / or supervision of a group of trading experts. Autonomous and / or automated (supervised or semi-supervised) processes can be achieved through robotic process automation, for example, by training a group of intelligent agents to enable a group of trading experts to interact with the trading support system (e.g., a software system for configuring and executing energy trading activities) for trade discovery, configuration, or execution.

[0548] As energy is increasingly produced and consumed in local, decentralized markets, the energy market is likely to follow the models of other peer-to-peer or sharing economy markets, such as carpooling, shared apartments, and secondhand markets. Technology can bypass top-down or centralized energy supply and enable operators to create platforms that can manage and monetize idle capacity, for example, through the leasing and trading of assets and output.

[0549] As more distributed or peer-to-peer energy trading markets develop, platform 102 may include systems, or link to, integrate with, or support other platforms, to facilitate P2P trading, wholesale contracts, renewable energy certificate (REC) tracking, and a wider range of distributed energy supply, payment management, and other trading components. In embodiments, the foregoing may utilize blockchain, distributed ledger, and / or smart contract systems 132. For example, a homeowner with excess solar energy might decide to sell this excess energy. This transaction is securely recorded on the blockchain.

[0550] In this embodiment, with increased transparency, choice, and flexibility, consumers will be able to actively participate in the energy market by generating, storing, selling, and consuming electricity. For example, a local community might decide to utilize its collective solar power generation. Platform 102 enables households with solar panels to exchange excess energy with those without, ensuring benefits for the entire community.

[0551] In this embodiment, trading elements can be configured by the energy trading support system 144 to optimize energy generation, storage, or consumption, such as utility company usage time fees. Utilizing IoT-based platforms, energy demand can be shifted from periods of high prices; these platforms can identify the periods with the cheapest energy costs. For example, in areas where utility fees vary based on usage time, platform 102 can shift energy demand to periods when energy is cheaper. In one example, smart home devices linked to platform 102 can identify the periods with the lowest energy costs and adjust their operation accordingly, thereby ensuring efficient and cost-effective energy consumption.

[0552] Stakeholder Energy Digital Twin Configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 may include a set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148, which in embodiments may include a set of digital twins configured to represent a set of energy-related stakeholder entities, including energy generation resources, energy distribution resources, and / or energy distribution resources owned and operated by stakeholders (including those represented by type, e.g., indicating renewable energy systems, carbon production systems, etc.); stakeholder information technology and network infrastructure entities (e.g., edge and IoT devices and systems, network systems, data centers, cloud data systems, internal information technology systems, etc.); energy-intensive stakeholder production facilities, e.g., machines and systems used in manufacturing; stakeholder transportation systems; market conditions (e.g., related to current and future market pricing of energy, stakeholder supply chains, stakeholder products and services, etc.). This set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148 can provide real-time information about status, operational conditions, etc., such as sensor data, event logs, and other information streams provided from IoT and edge devices, particularly related to energy consumption, generation, storage, and / or distribution.

[0553] This stakeholder energy digital twin 148 provides a visualized, real-time view of the impact of energy on all aspects of a business. Digital twins can be role-based, offering visual and analytical metrics tailored to specific user roles, such as financial reporting information for a Chief Financial Officer (CFO); operational parameters for power plant managers; and energy market information for energy traders. For example, a CFO might need a visualization highlighting the financial costs of energy consumption, such as how shifting operations to off-peak hours affects energy costs. In contrast, a power plant manager might be more interested in operational parameters, such as the efficiency of generating resources. On the other hand, energy traders might want to understand the energy market, such as tracking prices. Therefore, by providing insights tailored to individual roles, the stakeholder energy digital twin 148 ensures that different stakeholders have the relevant information they need to make informed decisions.

[0554] Data integration microservices Configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 may include a set of data integration microservices 150, for example, organized in a service-oriented architecture, allowing various microservices to be chained, parallelized, or grouped in more complex flows to create higher-level, more complex services, each providing a defined set of outputs by processing a defined set of outputs to support a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108 or to facilitate AI-based coordination, optimization, and / or automation systems 114. Configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 may be (but are not limited to) configured by various functions and capabilities of a set of intelligent data layers 130, which in turn operate on the internal event logs, outputs, data streams, etc., of data resources 110 and / or platform 102 used for various energy edge coordination.

[0555] Figure 2A and Figure 2B Introduction to the main subsystems of the main ecosystem components Data resources coordinated at the energy edge refer to Figure 2A Data resources 110 for energy edge coordination may include a set of edge and IoT network systems 160, public data resources 162, and / or a set of enterprise data resources 168. In embodiments, these may be supported by or utilize an adaptive energy data pipeline 164, which automatically handles data processing, filtering, compression, storage, routing, transmission, error correction, security, extraction, transformation, loading, normalization, cleaning, and / or other data processing capabilities involved in transmitting data over a network or communication system. This may include adjusting one or more of these aspects of data processing based on data content (e.g., through packet inspection or other mechanisms for understanding packets), network conditions (e.g., congestion, latency / delay, packet loss, error rate, transport costs, quality of service (QoS), etc.), usage context (e.g., based on users, systems, use cases, applications, etc., including based on their priority), market factors (e.g., price or cost factors), user configuration or other factors, and various combinations thereof. For example, among many other routes, the lowest-cost route can be automatically selected for data related to the management of low-priority energy use, such as heating a swimming pool, while the fastest or highest QoS route can be selected for data supporting priority use or energy, such as supporting critical healthcare infrastructure.

[0556] refer to Figure 2BPlatform 102 and coordination can include, integrate, link to, utilize, create, or otherwise process extensive data resources for Advanced Energy Resources and Systems 104, a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108, and / or energy edge coordination 110. In embodiments, elements of Advanced Energy Resources and Systems 104, a set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108, and / or energy edge coordination 110 can be coupled with… Figure 1 The corresponding elements shown may be the same, similar, or different. Data resources may include individual databases, distributed databases, and / or federated data resources, etc.

[0557] Edge and IoT network systems It can collect and process a wide range of energy-related data (including through artificial intelligence services and other capabilities), and control commands can be processed by a set of edge and IoT network systems 160, such as network systems integrated into devices, components, or systems; network systems located in IoT devices and systems; network systems located in edge devices and systems; for example, the aforementioned network systems are located in or around energy-related entities, such as network systems used by consumers or businesses, such as network systems involved in energy generation, storage, transmission, or use. These include any of the broad range of software, data, and network systems described herein.

[0558] Public Data Resources In this embodiment, platform 102 may track public data resources 162, such as weather data. Weather conditions can affect energy use, especially when they are related to HVAC systems. Collecting, compiling, and analyzing weather data related to other building information enables building managers to proactively understand HVAC energy consumption. Public data resources 162 may include satellite data, demographic and psychometric data, population data, census data, market data, website data, e-commerce data, and many other types of data.

[0559] Enterprise Data Resources A set of enterprise data resources 168 can include a wide range of enterprise resources, such as enterprise resource planning data, sales and marketing data, financial planning data, accounting data, tax data, customer relationship management data, demand planning data, supply chain data, procurement data, pricing data, customer data, product data, and operational data.

[0560] Subsystems and modules of advanced energy resources and systems In this embodiment, the advanced energy resource and system 104 may include a distributed energy resource, or “DER” 128. A more decentralized energy resource means that more individuals, network groups, and energy communities will be able to generate and share their own energy and coordinate systems to achieve ultimate efficiency. DER 128 may be small- or medium-sized generation and / or storage units that operate locally and can be connected to a larger power grid at the distribution level. For example, DER 128 may be connected to a local power grid or isolated from the grid in a standalone application.

[0561] Energy infrastructure transformation The advanced energy resources and systems 104 coordinated by platform 102 may include a set of transformed energy infrastructure systems 120. The energy edge will involve the increasing digitization of generation, transmission, substation, and distribution assets, which in turn will impact the operation, maintenance, and expansion of traditional power grid infrastructure. In embodiments, the set of transformed energy infrastructure systems 120 may be integrated with or linked to platform 102. The transition to improved infrastructure may include moving from SCADA systems and other existing control, automation, and monitoring systems to an IoT platform with advanced capabilities.

[0562] In this embodiment, new assets added to or coordinated with the grid (e.g., DER 128) can be compatible with existing infrastructure to maintain voltage, frequency, and phase synchronization. For example, consider a city integrating renewable energy sources such as wind turbines and solar panels (DER 128) into its existing grid. These new assets need to be integrated with the older infrastructure to ensure consistent power delivery. This compatibility ensures that residents do not experience fluctuations in voltage, frequency, or phase synchronization even as the city transitions to greener energy, thus ensuring a stable power supply.

[0563] In this embodiment, any improvements to traditional grid assets, new grid-connected equipment, and support systems may comply with regulatory standards from NERC, FERC, NIST, and other relevant agencies; positively impact grid reliability; reduce grid vulnerability to cyberattacks and other security threats; enhance the grid's ability to accommodate extensive bidirectional energy flows (i.e., DER proliferation); and provide interoperability with technologies that improve grid efficiency (i.e., by providing and facilitating demand response, reducing grid congestion, etc.).

[0564] The digitization of traditional power grid assets can involve assets used for power generation, transmission, storage, and distribution, including power plants, substations, and transmission lines.

[0565] In embodiments, to maintain and improve existing energy infrastructure, platform 102 may include various capabilities, including fully integrated predictive maintenance across utility-owned assets (i.e., generation, transmission, substations, and distribution); intelligent (AI / ML-based) outage detection and response; and / or intelligent (AI / ML-based) load forecasting, including optional integration of DER 128 with the existing power grid. For example, consider a scenario where a utility owns a network of generation and distribution assets, some of which are decades old. To ensure the lifespan and efficiency of these assets, platform 102 can provide predictive maintenance, alerting the utility before potential problems become severe.

[0566] In this embodiment, grid maintenance can be provided. Through proactive maintenance, utilities can accurately detect defects and reduce unplanned outages, thereby better serving customers. AI systems deployed with IoT and / or edge computing can help monitor energy assets and reduce maintenance costs. For example, if a transmission line shows signs of wear, platform 102 can alert the utility to repair it promptly. This proactive approach not only reduces unplanned outages but also lowers maintenance costs, resulting in a more efficient and cost-effective grid.

[0567] Digital resources In this embodiment, platform 102 can leverage the digital transformation of a wide range of digital resources. Machines are becoming increasingly intelligent, and software intelligence is embedded in all aspects of business, helping to drive new levels of operational efficiency and innovation. Furthermore, the ongoing digital transformation includes the proliferation of intelligent devices and systems with data processing and communication capabilities, the increasing ubiquitous sensors in edge, IoT, and other devices, and the generation of massive, dense data streams. All of this provides opportunities for enhanced intelligence, automation, optimization, and flexibility as information constantly flows between the physical and digital worlds. Such devices and systems require significant amounts of energy. For example, data centers consume vast amounts of energy, and edge and IoT devices can be deployed in off-grid environments requiring alternative forms of energy generation, storage, or mobility. In this embodiment, a set of digital resources can be integrated, accessed, or used to optimize energy consumption for computing, storage, and other resources in data centers and at the edge. In this embodiment, as more and more devices embed sensors and controllers, information can flow continuously between the physical and digital worlds as machines “talk” to each other. Products can be tracked from source to customer or during use, enabling rapid responses to internal and external changes. Personnel responsible for managing or regulating such systems can obtain detailed data from these devices to optimize operations throughout the process. This trend transforms big data into intelligent data, which can significantly improve cost and process efficiency.

[0568] In this embodiment, advancements in digital technology enable previously impossible levels of monitoring and operational performance. Leveraging sensors and other smart assets, service providers can collect extensive data across multiple parameters, enabling real-time monitoring 24 / 7.

[0569] In embodiments, the DER 128 will be integrated into computing networks and infrastructure devices and systems to enhance existing power grids and reduce costs and improve reliability. For example, platform 102 can significantly enhance existing power grids by integrating the DER 128 (e.g., localized solar power plants or wind turbines) into urban infrastructure. For instance, during peak demand periods, platform 102 can enable a city's energy management system to utilize local energy sources instead of relying solely on traditional power plants, which can reduce pressure on the main grid and save significant costs.

[0570] Mobile energy resources In this embodiment, the DER can be integrated into mobile energy resources 124, such as electric vehicles (EVs) and their charging networks / infrastructure, thereby enhancing the existing power grid and contributing to cost reduction and improved reliability. Given the rise of EVs (all types), charging infrastructure and vehicle charging planning need to be optimized to match supply and demand. Furthermore, the increasing electricity demand and the development of EV infrastructure will necessitate optimization using other relevant technologies such as edge computing and IoT. EV charging can be integrated into decentralized infrastructure and can even be used as a DER 128 by adding to the grid (e.g., via bidirectional charging stations) or by supplying power to another system locally. Vehicle power electronics and batteries can benefit the grid by providing system and grid services. Excess energy can be stored in the vehicle as needed and discharged when required. This flexible option not only avoids costly load spikes during periods of high energy demand but also increases the share of renewable energy usage.

[0571] In this embodiment, to universally integrate electric vehicles and charging infrastructure into the power distribution network, coordination with various other normalized communication protocols is required. Platform 102 may include, integrate, and / or link to a set of communication protocols that enable the management, supply, governance, and control of energy edge devices and systems. Here, platform 102 can act as a central hub, integrating various protocols to ensure smooth, efficient, and coordinated communication between the vehicle, the charging station, and the power grid when the EV is parked at a charging station.

[0572] Configuration of stakeholder energy edge solutions A set of configured stakeholder energy edge solutions 108 may include a set of mobility demand solutions 152, a set of enterprise optimization solutions 154, a set of energy supply and governance solutions 156, and / or a set of localized production solutions 158, etc. These solutions utilize various advanced energy resources and systems 104 and / or various configurable data and intelligence modules and services 118 to achieve benefits for specific stakeholders (e.g., private enterprises, NGOs, independent service organizations, government organizations, etc.). All such solutions can leverage edge intelligence, for example, using data collected from onboard or integrated sensors, IoT systems, and edge devices located near entities that generate, store, transmit, and / or use energy to feed models, expert systems, analytics systems, data services, intelligent agents, robotic process automation systems, and other artificial intelligence systems to facilitate solutions tailored to the specific needs of stakeholders. For example, in the case of an urban area, the set of mobility demand solutions 152 could be used to predict peak travel times and adjust public transportation schedules accordingly. Similarly, in the case of a large corporate campus, the set of enterprise optimization solutions 154 could be used to manage its energy consumption, ensuring that office buildings are adequately powered during working hours while conserving energy during off-peak hours.

[0573] Enterprise optimization solutions In this embodiment, DER 128 will be integrated with or into enterprise and shared resources to enhance the existing power grid and reduce costs and improve reliability. Increased digitalization will facilitate integration activities and promote new approaches to optimizing energy in buildings / operations and in campuses and enterprises. For example, by integrating DER 128, a campus can supplement its electricity demand with renewable energy. Digitalization of energy management can help campuses monitor and adjust their energy consumption in real time. In this embodiment, this can enable the efficient management of buildings by leveraging big data and plug load analytics, thereby increasing the bottom line for for-profit businesses. For example, campuses can efficiently manage their buildings to ensure energy is used where it is needed, thereby optimizing operating costs.

[0574] In embodiments, IoT sensors and building automation control systems can be configured to help optimize floor space, identify unused equipment, automate energy consumption, improve security, and reduce the building's environmental impact. For example, in a multi-story office building equipped with IoT sensors and building automation control systems, these systems can monitor energy consumption on each floor, ensuring that lighting and HVAC systems are optimized for the number of occupants. In one example, unused meeting rooms can automatically turn off lights and adjust temperature, reducing energy waste.

[0575] In this embodiment, platform 102 can manage the total energy consumption of systems and devices connected to the power grid or a set of DER 128 systems. Some systems are almost always operational, while other devices and machines may only be connected occasionally. By maintaining an understanding of the building's total daily power consumption and the role of individual devices in the total energy use of a particular system, platform 102 can optionally predict, provide, manage, and control total consumption using AI or algorithms. For example, platform 102 can use AI and algorithms to monitor and adjust energy consumption based on the specific needs of each building, thereby optimizing energy use.

[0576] In this embodiment, platform 102 can track and utilize understanding of occupant behavior. Occupant activity levels, behavioral patterns, and comfort preferences can be considered as factors in energy efficiency measures. This may include tracking various periodic or seasonal factors. Over time, the building's energy generation, storage, and / or consumption can follow predictable patterns that the IoT-based analytics platform can consider when generating recommended solutions. For example, in winter, if the platform notices that residents tend to stay home at night, it can adjust heating accordingly. Over time, the system learns from these patterns to ensure energy is used efficiently.

[0577] In embodiments, platform 102 can support or integrate with systems or platforms for autonomous operation. For example, industrial sites, such as oil drilling platforms and power plants, require extensive monitoring of efficiency and safety because leaks of liquids, vapors, or oil can be catastrophic, costly, and wasteful. Artificial intelligence and machine learning can provide autonomy to power plants, such as those served by edge devices, IoT devices, and on-site cameras and sensors. Models can be deployed at the edge of the power plant or on DER 128, for example, using real-time inference and pattern detection to identify faults such as leaks, vibrations, stress, etc. Operators can use computer vision, deep learning, and intelligent video analytics (IVA) to monitor heavy machinery, detect potential hazards, and alert workers in real time to protect their health and safety, prevent accidents, and assign maintenance technicians for maintenance. For example, in a factory with multiple machines, platform 102 can monitor the health of machines in real time, predict potential weaknesses, and recommend timely maintenance and repairs through AI and machine learning.

[0578] In this embodiment, platform 102 may support or integrate with systems or platforms for pipeline optimization. For example, oil and gas companies may rely on finding the most suitable routes to deliver oil to refineries and ultimately to gas stations. Edge AI can calculate the optimal flow rate of oil to ensure production reliability and protect the long-term health of pipelines. In this embodiment, companies can inspect pipelines for defects that could lead to dangerous failures and automatically alert pipeline operators.

[0579] Energy supply and governance solutions Energy supply and governance solutions 156 can include solutions for governing mining operations. Cobalt, nickel, and other metals are essential components of the batteries needed for the green EV revolution. The funding required to support the growing market will put economic pressure on mining operations, many of which take place in regions like the DRC where corruption, child labor, and violence have a long history. The company is exploring for cobalt in regions like Greenland, partly because the region offers reliable labor law enforcement, tax compliance, and so on. This commitment can be made more reliably there and in other jurisdictions through a suite of mining governance solutions 542. This suite of mining governance solutions 542 may include mine-grade IoT sensing of the mining environment, ground penetration sensing of unmined portions, mass spectrometry and computer vision-based sensing of mined materials, asset tagging of smart containers (e.g., detecting and recording open and close events to ensure that the material placed in the container is the same material delivered at the destination), wearable devices for detecting miners' physiological states, secure (e.g., blockchain and DLT-based) recording and resolution of transactions and transaction-related events, smart contracts for automatically distributing revenue (e.g., to tax authorities, workers), and automated systems for recording, reporting, and assessing compliance with contractual, regulatory, and legal policy requirements. From basic sensors to compliance reports, all of the above can be selectively represented in a digital twin representing each mine owner or an enterprise-operated entity.

[0580] The energy supply and governance solution 156 may also include a suite of carbon-sensing energy solutions, wherein data on the current state of carbon generation or emissions is collected via edge and IoT devices, and operational entities are managed by automatically generating a set of recommendations and / or control instructions to meet strategies, such as managing control over operational entities that generate (or capture) carbon by keeping operations within limits offset by available carbon offset credits.

[0581] More details about various energy supply and governance solutions are provided below.156

[0582] Localized production solutions In this embodiment, a set of localized production solutions 158 can be integrated with, linked to, or managed by platform 102 to meet localized production needs, particularly for goods with very high transportation costs (e.g., food) or services where energy distribution costs have a significant adverse impact on product or service profitability (e.g., requiring intensive computing in locations where the power grid is absent, lacks capacity, is unreliable, or is too expensive). Platform 102 can manage the energy consumption of this set of localized production solutions 158, optimizing usage based on available resources, especially in locations where traditional power grids may be absent or unreliable.

[0583] In this embodiment, the power management system can converge with other systems (e.g., building management system, operations management system, production system, service system, data center, etc.) to allow for enterprise-wide energy management. Platform 102 ensures optimal energy use across the enterprise by integrating power management with building management systems, operations management systems, production systems, service systems, data centers, etc. For example, during off-hours, when the building management system reduces lighting, the data center can offload its heavy computing workload, balancing the overall energy load.

[0584] Figure 3 More detailed information about distributed energy generation systems refer to Figure 3 The distributed energy generation system 302 may include wind turbines, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, flexible and / or floating solar systems, fuel cells, modular nuclear reactors, nuclear batteries, modular hydroelectric systems, microturbines and turbine arrays, reciprocating engines, gas turbines, and thermal power plants, etc. The distributed energy storage system 304 may include battery energy storage (including chemical batteries, etc.), molten salt energy storage, electrothermal energy storage (ETES), gravity-based storage, compressed fluid energy storage, pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), and liquid air energy storage (LAES), etc. The distributed energy storage system 304 may be managed by platform 102. In embodiments, the distributed energy storage system 304 may be portable, allowing energy units to be delivered to points of use, including points of use not connected to the conventional power grid or where the conventional power grid does not fully meet demand (e.g., points of use requiring larger peak power, more reliable continuous power, or other capabilities). Management may include integrating, coordinating, and maximizing the return on investment (ROI) of distributed energy (DER) while providing reliability and flexibility for energy demand.

[0585] In embodiments, DER 128 may use various distributed energy delivery methods and systems 308 with a variety of energy delivery capabilities, including transmission lines (e.g., conventional power grids and building infrastructure), wireless energy delivery (including resonant transmission via coupling, high-Q resonators, near-field energy delivery, and other methods), fluid, battery, fuel cell, small nuclear system, and the like.

[0586] Mobile energy resources 124 include various resources for generating, storing, or transmitting energy at various scales; therefore, mobile energy resources 124 may include subcategories of DER 128 with mobility attributes, such as those integrated into vehicles 310 (e.g., electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, etc., and in embodiments including a group of autonomous vehicles, the autonomous vehicles may be unmanned vehicles (UAVs), drones, etc.); those integrated into or used by mobile electronic devices 312 or other mobile systems; and those portable resources 314 (including those removable and replaceable from vehicles or other systems). As mobile energy resources 124 and supporting infrastructure (e.g., charging stations) scale in terms of capacity and availability, coordination of mobile energy resources 124 and other DER 128 (optionally with available grid resources) becomes increasingly important.

[0587] Resources involved in the generation, storage, and transmission of energy are increasingly being digitized. These digitized resources 122 may include intelligent resources 318 (e.g., smart devices (e.g., thermostats), smart home devices (e.g., speakers), smart buildings, smart wearables, and many other devices utilizing processors, network connectivity, smart agents, and other onboard intelligent features), wherein the intelligent features of intelligent resources 318 can be used for energy coordination, optimization, autonomy, control, and / or for providing data for artificial intelligence and analytics related to the foregoing. Digital resources 122 may also include IoT digitized resources and edge digitized resources 320, wherein sensors or other data collectors (e.g., data collectors monitoring event logs, network packets, network service patterns, networked device location patterns, or other available data) provide additional energy-related intelligence, such as intelligence related to the energy generation, storage, transmission, or consumption of traditional infrastructure systems and equipment, ranging from large-scale generators and transformers to consumer or commercial equipment, appliances, and other systems near a set of IoT or edge devices that can monitor these. Therefore, IoT and edge devices can provide digital information about the energy status and flow of such devices and systems, regardless of whether these devices and systems have onboard intelligence features; for example, IoT devices can also deploy current sensors on the power lines to appliances to detect utilization patterns, or edge-networked devices can detect whether another device or system connected to that device is in use (and in what state) by monitoring network traffic from that device. Digital resources 122 can also include cloud-aggregated resources 322 regarding energy generation, storage, transmission, or use, such as aggregated data across fleets of similar resources owned or operated by the enterprise and used in conjunction with defined workflows or activities. Cloud-aggregated resources 322 can consume data from various data resources 110, from crowdsourcing, from sensor data collection, from edge device data collection, and many other sources.

[0588] In embodiments, digital resource 122 can be used for a wide range of applications involving or benefiting from real-time information about the attributes, status, or flow of energy generation, storage, transmission, or consumption, including the implementation of digital twins, such as a set of adaptive energy digital twin systems 134 and / or a set of stakeholder energy digital twins 148, and stakeholder energy edge solutions 108 for a set of configurations. For example, a digital twin of an urban public transportation system can predict energy demand based on commuting patterns, thereby adjusting the operation of electric buses accordingly. Similarly, digital twins can be applied to various fields, such as manufacturing units that monitor mechanical energy consumption. The integration of platform 102 with these digital twins ensures that energy is always used optimally to meet the real-time needs of the respective systems.

[0589] In recent decades, energy production, storage, and consumption, particularly those involving green or renewable energy, have been the subject of intensive research and development, resulting in higher peak power generation capacity, increased storage capacity, reduced size and weight, and improved intelligence and autonomy. Advanced energy resources and systems 104 can include a wide range of advanced energy infrastructure systems and devices resulting from combinations of features and capabilities. In embodiments, flexible hybrid energy systems 324 can be provided, adapted to meet varying energy consumption requirements. For example, more than one energy source (e.g., solar or wind) can be provided to meet the baseline energy consumption requirements for off-grid operation, while nuclear batteries can be provided to meet much higher peak power requirements, for example, for temporary resource-intensive activities, such as operating drilling rigs in mines or periodically operating large factory machinery. A wide variety of flexible hybrid energy systems 324 are envisioned herein, including systems configured for modular interconnection with various types of localized production infrastructure as described herein and elsewhere. In embodiments, advanced energy resources and systems 104 may include advanced energy generation systems that draw electricity from fluid flows, such as a portable turbine array 328, which can be transported to a point of consumption near wind or water flow to replace or enhance grid resources. Advanced energy resources and systems 104 may also include modular nuclear systems 330, including nuclear systems configured to use nuclear batteries and nuclear systems configured to have mechanical, electrical, and data interfaces to work with various consumption systems, including vehicles, localized production systems (as described elsewhere herein), smart buildings, etc. Modular nuclear systems 330 may include SMRs and other reactor types.
