ELECTRIC POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ELECTRIC POWER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
The herein disclosed electric power management system includes a shared power supply, and an electric power selling process unit that is configured to control the electric power sell from the shared power supply to the external system, and a countervalue distributing unit that is configured to distribute a countervalue for the electric power sell to each of the plural users. Then, the countervalue distributing unit is configured to distribute the countervalue for the electric power sell so as to provide a larger countervalue of the electric power sell to an user whose electric power use amount from the shared power supply is smaller. By doing this, it is possible to provide a larger electric power sell countervalue to the user who has efforted to save the electric power.
MULTI-MARKET RESOURCE DISPATCH OPTIMIZATION
The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to enable multi-market optimization of renewable energies using data-driven models. To achieve this, a model retrieves a current state from a resource generation system and associated resource markets. The model can then compute a policy based on the state as well physical and technical constraints. The policy defines various actions that direct operation of the resource generation system such as resource production and dispatch to markets. Applying the policy to the resource generation results in a modified state which the model extracts along with a measure of optimality which quantifies the success of the policy. Based on these metrics, the model can generate an updated iteration of the policy defining a different set of actions. In this way, the model can gradually develop an optimal policy for controlling the resource generation system.
NET ZERO ENERGY FACILITIES
A method includes providing a net consumption trajectory comprising net consumption targets for one or more subperiods of a time period.
