摘要:
A connection in a power aggregation system for distributed electric resources is located by establishing, by way of a computer network, a communication between a mobile electric resource and a network-connected device, the mobile electric resource including one or more processors including a processor to control power flow, obtaining, with the one or more processors, a unique identifier associated with the network-connected device, transmitting, with the one or more processors, information regarding the mobile electric resource to a remote server, determining, with the one or more processors or the remote server, a location of the mobile electric resource from the unique identifier, determining at least one power connection location from the determined location, and charging the mobile electric resource with the determined at least one power connection location.

Systems and methods are described for a power aggregation system. In one implementation, a service establishes individual Internet connections to numerous electric resources intermittently connected to the power grid, such as electric vehicles. The Internet connection may be made over the same wire that connects the resource to the power grid. The service optimizes power flows to suit the needs of each resource and each resource owner, while aggregating flows across numerous resources to suit the needs of the power grid. The service can bring vast numbers of electric vehicle batteries online as a new, dynamically aggregated power resource for the power grid. Electric vehicle owners can participate in an electricity trading economy regardless of where they plug into the power grid.

Systems and methods for power aggregation are described. One method includes charging an electric resource or vehicle over a power connection to an electric network, obtaining, with a processor, a unique identifier of a device associated with the electric resource or vehicle at the power connection, and determining, with the processor, a location of the electric resource or vehicle from the unique identifier.

Systems and methods are described for a power aggregation system. In one implementation, a method includes determining a level of renewable energy on a power grid, determining a price of electricity on the power grid, and scheduling a charging of an electric resource connected to the power grid as a function of the price of electricity on the power grid and the level of renewable energy on the power grid.

Systems and methods are described for a power aggregation system. In one implementation, an apparatus includes a meter operable to measure bidirectional energy transfer between an electric resource and a power grid during fixed or variable intervals of time, and an interface coupled to the meter and operable to send the measurements to a service that aggregates power of distributed electric resources as a function of the measurements.

Systems and methods are described for a power aggregation system. In one implementation, a method includes establishing a communication connection with each of multiple electric resources connected to a power grid, receiving an energy generation signal from a power grid operator, and controlling a number of the electric resources being charged by the power grid as a function of the energy generation signal.
