Description

Technical Field

[0002] Currently, under the new grid system, the State Grid and China Southern Power Grid are implementing interactive demand-side management terminals (interactive demand-side management terminals) for large dedicated transformer users. By deploying demand-side management terminals on large dedicated transformer users and completing intelligent and refined control upgrades, these terminals enable remote monitoring and intelligent control of electrical equipment in high-power-consuming industries across various manufacturing sectors. This allows dedicated transformer users to actively participate in energy management, enabling them to understand and control their own electricity consumption in a timely manner, and effectively improve energy efficiency and energy conservation.

[0003] By connecting key energy-consuming circuits for enterprises, comprehensive energy management and a user-friendly interface are provided, allowing users to understand the entire electricity consumption process, detailed electricity distribution, and load attributes. Based on orderly electricity consumption instructions, during peak electricity consumption periods, users can shut down some temporarily interruptible loads according to their own electricity distribution, achieving minimal or no impact on production order.

[0004] In related technologies, due to the lack of effective monitoring and feedback mechanisms, dedicated transformer users may not be able to fully understand their own electricity consumption, thus failing to actively participate in energy management, resulting in widespread energy waste; some power grid feeder monitoring devices cannot provide effective energy use analysis and optimization suggestions, leaving dedicated transformer users without guidance in energy management, which in turn affects energy use efficiency and leads to poor energy-saving effects.
