A method for reducing and/or managing energy-related stress in an electrical system includes processing electrical measurement data from or derived from energy-related signals captured by at least one intelligent electronic device (IED) in the electrical system to identify and track at least one energy-related transient in the electrical system. An impact of the at least one energy-related transient on equipment in the electrical system is quantified, and one or more transient-related alarms are generated in response to the impact of the at least one energy-related transient being near, within or above a predetermined range of the stress tolerance of the equipment. The transient-related alarms are prioritized based in part on at least one of the stress tolerance of the equipment, the stress associated with one or more transient events, and accumulated energy-related stress on the equipment. One or more actions are taken in the electrical system in response to the transient-related alarms to reduce energy-related stress on the equipment in the electrical system.

Provided are a method and apparatus for dynamically controlling electrical loads, a storage medium and an electronic apparatus. The method includes that: a current capacity balance of a user sub-region is acquired from an intelligent electricity monitoring and metering terminal through a mobile terminal; when the current capacity balance is smaller than a load power of an electric consumption device to be started in the user sub-region, a regional coordination control apparatus or a server is requested through the mobile terminal to adjust and increase a capacity allocated for the user sub-region, such that a capacity balance will be greater than or equal to the load power; and whether to allow to start the electric consumption device is determined according to a decision replied by the regional coordination control apparatus or the server.

A phasor measurement unit (PMU) of the present disclosure measures phasor, i.e., magnitude and phase angle of voltage and current, and related data from a specific location on the electrical gird synchronized to a common time source. The time-synchronized phasor is called a synchrophasor. In a system of the present disclosure, a plurality of PMUs transmit the synchrophasors and related data to a phasor data concentrator (PDC), which aggregates and time-aligns the data for real time and post analysis. The PMU of the present disclosure further functions as a power quality meter determining at least one of symmetrical components' phasor, frequency, rate of change of frequency, high-speed digital inputs, analog fundamental power and/or displacement power factor.

A demand response system includes a mobile application of a mobile device that is configured to initiate altering an operating condition of a network device disposed at a site using location based services. A demand response application interface module is configured to enable access between a utility company and the network device to communicate energy management information therebetween. The network device is configured to be remotely altered by each of the demand response application interface module and the mobile application separately based on the location based services and the energy management information. A method of managing a demand response system includes detecting a user being disposed away from a site, detecting energy management information from a utility company associated with the site, and initiating a reduction in energy use at the site in response to the relative location of the user and the energy management information.

A system and method for managing power consumption and storage in a power grid. Measurements are received from a plurality of geographically distributed energy management controllers. Each energy management controllers has energy storage units with stored energy. The measurements comprise the energy production and storage capacity of the energy management controllers and their associated energy storage units. The measurements are processed, e.g., aggregated, and displayed on a graphical user interface. Commands are transmitted to a first subset of the energy management controllers to command the units to discharge their stored energy into a power grid through an inverter. Commands are transmitted to a second subset of the plurality of energy management controllers to store energy in each unit's energy storage unit.
