Systems and methods utilizing AC overbuilt renewable electric generation resource and charge storage device providing desired capacity factor
An integrated renewable energy source (RES) and energy storage system (ESS) facility configured to supply power to an AC electrical grid includes energy storage system capacity and inverter capacity that are larger than a point of grid interconnect (POGI) limit for the facility, enabling high capacity factors and production profiles that match a desired load. At least one first DC-AC power inverter is associated with RES, and at least one second AC-DC power inverter is associated with the ESS. AC-DC conversion is used when charging the ESS with RES AC electric power, and DC-AC conversion utility is used when discharging ESS AC electric power to the electric grid. Aggregate DC-AC inverter utility exceeds the facility POGI limit, and excess RES AC electric power may be diverted to the second inverter(s).
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING A HYBRID AIR/LIQUID COOLING SYSTEM OF A BUILDING
A device may monitor an intake temperature of an air flow through an air intake of a building that includes a ventilation system for temperature control of a first region of the building, a liquid cooling system for temperature control of equipment that is within a second region of the building, and a heat exchanger that is thermally coupled to the ventilation system and the liquid cooling system. The device may determine that the intake temperature is below a threshold temperature. The device may control the ventilation system to cause the air flow to cool a water flow of the liquid cooling system via the heat exchanger to produce a cooled water flow. The device may control the liquid cooling system to cause the cooled water flow of the liquid cooling system to bypass a chiller system of the liquid cooling system to reduce power consumption by the chiller system.

Dynamic artificial intelligence appliance
A control apparatus providing a Dynamic Artificial Intelligence system, which employs data sets and software functions representing a plurality interactive software engine's, including Inference, Neural Net, State, and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) Engines. These engines are implemented as a set of scheduled realtime monitors and callable functions with associated processes preformed within a system. Monitors dynamically estimates and determine the optimal control policy for the system and its sub-systems. Monitors utilize an iterative process of sub-steps “function calls’, until a convergence states exist. Functions and subfunctions dynamically estimate the desired value for operation at a respective state of the environment over a series of predicted environmental states; using a complex return of data sets to determine bounds to improve the estimated currently desired value; and producing updated estimates of optimal control policies. DAI further interacts in realtime with external events to modify control policies.
