Transaction-enabled systems and methods for resource acquisition for a fleet of machines
The present disclosure describes transaction-enabling systems and methods. A system can include a controller and a fleet of machines, each having at least one of a compute task requirement, a networking task requirement, and an energy consumption task requirement. The controller may include a resource requirement circuit to determine an amount of a resource for each of the machines to service the task requirement for each machine, a forward resource market circuit to access a forward resource market, and a resource distribution circuit to execute an aggregated transaction of the resource on the forward resource market.

Controller, controlling method, and record medium
A controller according to an embodiment controls a hydrogen system including at least a hydrogen production system in which received power is planned in advance and a hydrogen production amount changes in accordance with the received power. The controller includes: a processor that calculates, in a preparation time period before a demand adjustment time period in which a target value of the received power is set in advance, a control command value such that input power to be inputted as the received power to the hydrogen production system matches the target value at a start of the demand adjustment time period; and a command controller that outputs the control command value calculated by the processor to the hydrogen production system.

ADAPTIVE SYSTEM FOR MANAGING ENERGY COMMUNITIES WITH VARIABLE CONFIGURATION
An adaptive system for managing, in an integrated way, multiple EC with variable configuration, with prosumer and/or proconstomer and/or constorer nodes that are dynamically aggregated over the time, through a partitionable digital platform that includes logics for the automatic management. To each platform portion corresponds an EC and an oriented combination of logics in turn selected, sequenced and parametrized according to the optimization purposes provided by the EC, to locally implement, through the controller of each node, the commands imparted to its devices and optimize energy flows, by first adapting to EC logics and then to single node logics. The oriented combination is continually recalculated, within 50 milliseconds from the reading of the data of each aggregated node, to adapt in real time to the variable configuration of an EC and its nodes.

Modular Grid-Connected Flywheel System
A frequency support system arranged for providing frequency support to an AC grid. The system includes an ES arrangement, and a bi-directional DC/AC power electronic converter interface configured for connecting the ES arrangement with the grid. The ES arrangement includes a plurality of series connected ES groups, each ES group including a plurality of parallel connected ES modules, each ES module including an energy storage interfaced by a bi-directional power electronic ES converter configured for connecting the ES with a DC side of the converter interface.
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.

Integrated carbon-negative, energy generation and storage system
A system and method provide integrated carbon-negative, geothermal-based, energy generation and storage. The embodiments produce dispatchable electricity at grid-scale by storing excess energy from the grid and generating its own energy. The excess energy may be taken from solar and wind sources. In one aspect, the subject technology is energy storage, energy generation, carbon utilization and sequestration, all in one. The technology has very high round-trip efficiency of storing energy and is carbon-negative which makes it far more sustainable than any competing energy storage technology.
