摘要： Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for electric vehicle charging management. In one example, a method includes: building a graph representing an electrical topology of the electric vehicle charging facility and producing an updated graph by updating a state of the one or more network nodes based on electric current or power flow through the one or more passive electric components and updating a state of the one or more component nodes based on electric current or power produced or consumed by the one or more active electric components. The method further includes receiving a selected control strategy for the electric vehicle charging facility and adjusting an electric current or a power draw of an electric vehicle charging station in the electric vehicle charging facility based on the updated graph and the selected control strategy.

摘要： A combined electric power generations' supply system includes an AC power generator that supplies power by off grid independent operation, a DC power supply device, an inverter that converts DC power output by the DC power supply device into AC power. The rotation calculation unit calculates a value relating to a rotation of a rotor when driving the virtual power generator according to an active power command based on a rotor model calculates a value relating to the rotation of the rotor of the virtual power generator and the active power command. The output determination unit determines values relating to an active power and a reactive power to be output to the inverter based on the calculated value relating to the rotation. The modulation control unit performs control of a pulse width modulation of the inverter based on the determined value relating to the active power and reactive power. A time constant relating to synchronization power of the rotor model matches a time constant relating to synchronization power with the AC power generator.

摘要： The present invention refers to a system for managing distributed energy storage systems like a Virtual Power Plant (VPP). The system is adapted to process grid services requests from grid operators and/or market agents, and to dynamically set clusters of energy storage devices based on properties of the energy storage devices, and selecting those energy storage devices that are suitable to fulfill grid service operation requirements of at least one grid service. The system is further adapted to allow injection or absorption of energy to or from the grid during a time period, through at least one cluster of selected energy storage devices, to provide at least one grid service demanded by grid operators and/or market agents. The system of the invention enables the participation of a battery energy storage system in a plurality of grid services at the same time, so as to optimize the use of prosumers battery storage capacity, and enlarge prosumers participation in the electricity market.

摘要： An electric vehicle includes a bi-directional converter. The bi-directional converter converts AC or DC energy to DC energy for charging the battery of the electric vehicle. The converter converts DC energy from the battery to AC or DC energy for driving a load. The converter is attached to and travels with the electric vehicle. The converter may receive and provide three-phase, split-phase and single-phase AC energy.

摘要： A sustainable and compact green energy harvesting, storage and monetization ecosystem. Various energy capturing devices (e.g., solar, wind, water, kinetic) are utilized to capture sustainable and renewable energy that is captured in portable energy storage devices (e.g., battery packs). The energy from the battery packs is collected by an energy collection, storage and distribution facility that may store the energy for future use and/or utilize the energy to mine/purchase cryptocurrencies, provide energy for industry, provide charging stations, and/or sell energy back to the grid. Customers are paid for the energy they provide in various types of currencies based on their contract with the system. The ecosystem is small, sustainable, green, scalable, environmentally friendly, and easy to use for anyone, anywhere.
