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： 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： This disclosure enables energy providers and users to establish variable pricing or maximum thresholds for individual components (aka appliances) or groups of components. The consumer (individual or business) defines a usage policy for each device or component which defines limits the consumer is willing to pay in a supply shortage. The usage policy also defines safety parameters as well as energy limiting capabilities of the appliance or component. Energy suppliers use this usage policy to determine which devices get managed or powered off in a shortage situation. With the detailed consumer supply and demand data available from this invention, energy providers may use economic analysis to better understand customer price sensitivity. This information will enable the provider to run simulations of different energy shortage scenarios.
摘要翻译：本公开使能源供应商和用户能够为单个组件（也称为电器）或组件组建立可变定价或最大阈值。消费者（个体或业务）为每个设备或组件定义使用策略，其定义消费者愿意在供应短缺中支付的限制。使用政策还定义了设备或组件的安全参数以及能量限制能力。能源供应商使用此使用政策来确定哪些设备在短缺情况下得到管理或关闭。根据本发明详细的消费者供求数据，能源供应商可以使用经济分析来更好地了解客户价格敏感性。该信息将使供应商能够运行不同能源短缺情景的模拟。

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： A consumer initiated automated and dynamic negotiation enables the consumer to obtain more beneficial rates and/or other terms between the consumer and one or more energy providers. The negotiation is based on anticipated computational processing requirements of the consumer, and the current energy costs being offered by each provider. Other elements such as the ability of the provider to timely supply the energy and the differential between the costs of traditional and green energy may also be factored in. The results of the negotiation can produce a shifting of all or part of the workload to another provider or an alternative geographical location to capitalize on lower power rates or conditions of delivery. The negotiation may be based on an auction between more than one competing energy supplier.
摘要翻译：消费者启动了自动化和动态的谈判，使消费者能够在消费者和一个或多个能源供应商之间获得更有利的价格和/或其他条款。谈判是基于消费者的预期计算处理要求，以及每个提供商提供的当前能源成本。供应商及时提供能源的能力以及传统和绿色能源成本之间差异的其他要素也可能被考虑在内。谈判结果可能导致全部或部分工作量转移到另一个供应商或替代地理位置，以利用较低的功率率或交付条件。谈判可能是基于一个竞争性能源供应商之间的拍卖。

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.
