INTELLIGENT ELECTRICITY METER SYSTEM WITH LIGHT WALLET
The present invention discloses an intelligent electricity meter system with a light wallet, including a CPU, a metering module, a blockchain light wallet module and a communication module. By using a blockchain light wallet module, the present invention solves the problems that the electricity meter in the prior art cannot implement the peer-to-peer electricity transaction, and electric quantity collection, transaction and recording of the distributed wind photovoltaic and storage battery, and the demand for the energy Internet big data cannot be met. The distributed electricity generation and storage as well as the bi-directional metering of electric energy production and electricity consumption of an electricity user are implemented, such that the electricity quantity of a scattered intelligent microgrid may be metered, transacted and recorded. The distributed electricity generation side and utilization side make the microgrid more feasible economically by taking the intelligent electricity meter as an evidence of transaction charge.

SYSTEM AND COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHOD FOR DETERMINING LOAD SHAPES FOR DISTRIBUTED GENERATION CUSTOMERS
A system and computer-implemented method for determining load shapes for distributed generation (DG) customers in an electricity generation, distribution, and consumption system without using direct load research data. Existing billing data may provide the amount of electricity delivered to and received from each DG customer each month, interconnection data may provide the installed on-site electricity generation capacity for each DG customer, and the average hourly output from a sample of DG or utility/community scale facility may provide a representative generation profile. The load shapes may include the load delivered to DG customers, the excess generated electricity exported back to the electricity distribution network by the DG customers, the generated electricity consumed on-site, and the load in the absence of DG facility(ies)/customer(s). The load shapes have many applications, such as determining cost-of-service, forecasting load, responding to demand, developing standards for distribution systems for serving DG customers, designing rates, and other purposes.

MANAGING THE DETERMINATION OF A TRANSFER FUNCTION OF A MEASUREMENT SENSOR
The present disclosure relates to generating a measurement sensor profiling summary in relation to a measurement sensor of an electrical measurement system, the measurement sensor being suitable for measuring an electrical property. The profiling summary is generated by obtaining a plurality of profiling results each comprising an estimate of a transfer function of a measurement sensor of the electrical measurement system and a corresponding certainty value indicative of the accuracy of the estimate of the transfer function, wherein the plurality of profiling results are based on estimates of the transfer function of the measurement sensor and corresponding certainty values that were determined by a monitor module of the electrical measurement system during a profiling period of time; and generating a profiling summary based on at least one of the plurality of profiling results.
MANAGING THE DETERMINATION OF A TRANSFER FUNCTION OF A MEASUREMENT SENSOR
The present disclosure relates to the control of an operation of a monitor module of an electrical measurement system, where the monitor module has a plurality of operating states, including a) monitor at least a first measurement sensor of the utility meter to determine a first monitor result comprising an estimate of a transfer function of the first measurement sensor and a corresponding certainty value indicative of the accuracy of the estimate of the transfer function of the first measurement sensor, wherein the first measurement sensor is for measuring a first electrical property, and b) do not monitor any measurement sensor of the electrical measurement system.
MANAGING THE DETERMINATION OF A TRANSFER FUNCTION OF A MEASUREMENT SENSOR
The present disclosure provides a system and method for the management of a monitor module in an electrical measurement system to determine an estimate of a transfer function of a first measurement sensor in the measurement system. The management comprises outputting a first control instruction for instructing the monitor module to determine an estimate of the transfer function of the first measurement sensor over a first individual run length of time, obtaining a first monitor result from the monitor module, the monitor result comprising the estimate of the transfer function of the first measurement sensor and generating a report based at least in part on the first monitor result.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING BUILDING ENERGY MANAGEMENT
A method for performing energy management for a building includes generating a stack of energy loads representative of a plurality of building energy loads. The energy loads are prioritized from highest priority energy loads to lowest priority energy loads. The prioritized energy loads are then compared to a building power threshold. The lowest priority energy loads are shed until a sum of remaining energy loads is equal to or less than the building power threshold. The remaining energy loads are serviced. The processes of prioritizing the energy loads, comparing the prioritized energy loads to a building power threshold, and shedding the lowest priority energy loads is repeated in response to changes in circumstances affecting the building.
