摘要： The transfer and usage of a modulated carrier signal within a power signal on a power line communication system is described. The modulated signal comprises metadata which is transmitted at a different frequency than the transmitted power. The metadata, including such elements as energy costs, providers, renewable source status and originating location, may be used by consumers to make subsequent purchasing decisions. Additionally, the energy costs of any given computer node commonly distributed in a grid architecture may be collected by a workload dispatcher in order to make more accurate cost and energy source based dispatch decisions. The consumer may be able to communicate directly back to the power provider. The use of computer-readable medium and product containing instructions that are implemented on a computer is also covered. Finally, the invention may be deployed on behalf of the consumer by a third party service provider.

摘要： Under the present solution, dependencies and relationships of objects are stored and are updatable by consumers and optionally manufacturers through a local UI or web interface. These dependencies and relationships are stored in a “collection profile” which describes the capabilities of objects. When a request to reduce energy is received the system can query the collection profile to determine the downstream effect of reducing energy to a single object. The collection profile will identify which other objects rely on that object and would also need to have energy reduced. Being able to identify these linkages and effects of changes across the system will be critical for good energy management.
摘要翻译：在目前的解决方案中，对象的依赖关系和关系被存储，并可由消费者和可选制造商通过本地UI或Web界面进行更新。这些依赖关系和关系存储在描述对象功能的“集合简档”中。当接收到减少能量的请求时，系统可以查询收集简档以确定将能量减少到单个对象的下游效应。集合简档将标识哪些其他对象依赖于该对象，并且还需要减少能量。能够识别这些联系和系统变化的影响对于良好的能源管理至关重要。

摘要： Energy costs for conducting compute tasks at diverse data center sites are determined and are then used to route such tasks in a most efficient manner. A given compute task is first evaluated to predict potential energy consumption. The most favorable real-time energy costs for the task are determined at the various data center sites. The likely time period of the more favorable cost as well as the stability at the data center are additional factors. A workload dispatcher then forwards the selected compute task to the data center having the most favorable real-time energy costs. Among the criteria used to select the most favorable data center is a determination that the proposed center presently has the resources for the task.

摘要： Under the present invention, users are provided with the capability to select how energy will be throttled in shortage conditions. For example, users can promise to throttle or cut energy to devices that they consider noncritical (e.g. television, toaster, stereo) in exchange for a promise that the energy company will continue to give them enough to run more essential devices (e.g. lights, well pump, etc.). As users agree to lower usage in response to a energy shortage, they are provided a higher QoS rating than users who do not offer to lower usage. As a shortage worsens, conserving users will be allocated energy before non-conserving users. Enforcement and fulfillment of obligations established in agreements may be automated to ensure compliance.
摘要翻译：在本发明中，向用户提供了选择如何在短缺条件下节能的能力。例如，用户可以承诺节能或削减他们认为不重要的设备（例如电视，烤面包机，立体声），以换取能源公司将继续给予足够的能力来运行更多的基本设备（例如灯光，良好）泵等）。由于用户同意在能源短缺的情况下降低使用量，因此与不提供降低使用量的用户相比，它们的QoS评级提高了。随着短缺的恶化，节约用户将在非保存用户之前获得能源。执行和履行协议中规定的义务可能会自动化，以确保遵守。

摘要： This invention discloses an intelligent framework for the overall management of energy allocated to components of a system. When conservation is desired or a shortage occurs, it is desirable to modulate energy to components, or to notify components and allow them to modulate themselves. It also discusses the establishment of a standard communications API between entities and components within the system. Among other things, this framework: manages device and entity enrollment into the system; provides an interface to heterogeneous devices; establishes standard communication methods between entities and components; dictates throttling to entities and components when conservation is required; and monitors energy throttling and compliance with modulate requests.

摘要： Power or energy providers are enabled to request and initiate the relocation of customer computational workloads to other energy providers or other locations during critical situations, such as weather crises, national emergencies, power distribution interruptions, or equipment upsets. Workloads may be pre-registered and automatically relocated by the provider based on conditions of agreements between the provider and the customer. Alternatively, provider-initiated requests may be broadcast to all customers or specified subscribed customers giving them the ability to redirect the workloads as desired. The workloads may be re-allocated based upon such factors as lower costs, time shifts or quality of service contract provisions. The re-allocation serves to minimize or eliminate the potential adverse impact on the customer while maintaining a level of service that is satisfactory to the customer.
摘要翻译：在诸如天气危机，国家紧急情况，配电中断或设备故障等关键情况下，电力或能源供应商能够请求并启动将客户计算工作负载重新定位到其他能源供应商或其他位置。工作量可以根据供应商和客户之间的协议条件由供应商进行预注册并自动重新定位。或者，提供商发起的请求可以广播给所有客户或指定的订阅客户，使得他们能够根据需要重定向工作负载。工作量可以根据诸如较低成本，时间间隔或服务质量合同条款等因素重新分配。重新分配用于最大限度地减少或消除对客户的潜在不利影响，同时保持客户满意的服务水平。

摘要： The selection of an optimal data center location for running a computational workload is based on multiple energy criteria. The location is chosen based on multivariate and predictive analysis of total direct and indirect energy costs, and other user-defined factors. Among the direct and indirect costs are power costs and cooling costs as well as structural and other details of a given data center. Among the other factors to be considered that can have an impact on present and future costs are weather patterns, data and forecasts, availability of energy providers, and energy attributes. A forecaster factors these direct and indirect costs along with extrinsic information such as historical trends and predictive sources into a forecast which is then input to a decision engine along with user defined criteria and with anticipated compute tasks and requirements to select a final location or locations for handling the workload.

摘要： In general, the present invention discloses a policy-based decision system to manage energy consumption within a complex system, such as a municipality, business or home. These policies help to control energy usage, either for the purpose of conservation or to contend with a shortage situation. In general, policies may be set based on business requirements, including energy demand, energy supply, safety, Quality of Service (QoS) settings per object or groupings, convenience, risk analysis output or events. Among other things the approach described herein discloses the following: creation and management of policies; selection of optimal throttling plan to achieve energy conservation requirements; running of simulation scenarios based on different policies and/or reduction requirements; conducting of risk analysis for different scenarios; etc.
