This invention describes a central controller that manages all the energy-related devices in a system, including those that generate, store, use, and even recover energy. Its job is to constantly adjust how energy, materials, and information flow between these devices to make the entire system as energy-efficient as possible. The claims narrow this to a controller for a ubiquitous energy network, specifically mentioning distributed energy systems located close to where energy is used.
Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of distributed energy resources and advanced AI for real-time grid optimization. The necessary data processing and control capabilities are now far more accessible.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
