    Abstract: Techniques for managing connections within an energy generation network may be provided. Real-time data associated with network-connected energy generation devices at a location may be collected to determine communication channels between the devices. If it is determined that an inverter of the network is solar-powered, a wizard application may be launched to help a technician determine whether a meter will lose connectivity with a gateway device. The wizard application may provide instructions to power down the inverter. Once the inverter is powered down, it may be determined whether the metering device has lost its network connection with the gateway. If so, an instruction to install a repeater device during the installation may be provided.

    Abstract translation: 可以提供用于管理能量生成网络内的连接的技术。 可以收集与位置处的与网络连接的能量产生设备相关联的实时数据,以确定设备之间的通信信道。 如果确定网络的逆变器是太阳能供电的,则可以启动向导应用来帮助技术人员确定仪表是否将失去与网关设备的连接。 向导应用程序可能会提供关闭逆变器电源的指令。 一旦逆变器掉电,可以确定计量设备是否已经失去与网关的网络连接。 如果是这样,可以提供在安装期间安装中继器设备的指令。

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for an energy generation site includes detecting an energy storage device and its storage capacity, detecting an electrical grid operatively coupled to the energy generation site, and receiving event data corresponding to an event affecting the electrical grid. The method further includes determining a probability that the electrical grid will experience a power outage based on the event data, and charging the storage device according to a first charging profile or a second charging profile based on the probability. A maximum charge set point of the storage device for the first charging profile is less than the maximum storage capacity of the storage device, and the maximum charge set point for the second charging profile is at the maximum storage capacity of the storage device. The event data can be weather data, geological data, social media, or local alert data.
