Systems and methods for load management for electric grids. An example load management system includes a load management server associated with a utility and a first revenue meter communicatively connected to the load management server. The first revenue meter includes a first controller configured to determine a user priority of load distribution to a plurality of devices in communication with the first revenue meter and determine a current power drawn by the plurality of devices. The first controller is configured to transmit, in response to a load shed event and based on the user priority, a load shed command to the plurality of devices indicating a new amount of power to be drawn by the plurality of devices, and transmit an indication of the load shed event to the load management server.
