Abstract: Systems and methods for managing electrical power at a worksite are described herein. A control system determines available sources of electrical power at the worksite. The control system establishes communications with one or more work machines at the worksite and commences monitor power usage of the one or more work machines. Upon receiving an indication that a work machine requires power, the control system determines the type of power to be used by the work machine. The types of power can include a grid power supply and a portable power supply. If the portable power supply is required, the control system transmits an instruction to move the portable power supply to the location where the electrical power is to be used.
