OUTPUT CONTROL AND COMPENSATION FOR AC COUPLED SYSTEMS

A power output control and compensation (PCC) circuit operates within a distributed energy resource (DER) system. The PCC circuit is located in a battery power conversion system (PCS) and includes an input terminal to connect with a power source and an output terminal to connect with an electrical panel or load. A current sensing device is coupled between the input and the output terminals to measure a power level of the power source. A relay is coupled between the current sensing device and the output terminal and a processor selectively connects power from the power source to the electrical panel or the load based on the measured power level or based on other power measurements within the DER system. PCS-control of multiple power sources decreases cycle times for controlling distributed energy resources.

Process for componentizing of energy flows

Energy flows are segmented into components for tracking the location of energy consumption and production. Data collected on energy flows is used to create profiles of energy production and consumption over specified time windows for specific clients. Data profiles are also created for an aggregation of clients. The portion of an energy flow that is distributed to each client within an area is calculated. Based on data obtained and portions calculated of the energy flow, incentives are created to encourage energy production and usage in locations that reduce energy losses due to transmission of the energy flow. Aggregated data and feedback information about production and consumption is sent back to clients. Incentives can be in the form of pricing adjustments for both production and consumption during specified time periods.
