Distributed Smart Energy Infrastructure

Assets → Flow Network → Intelligence → Data → Financial/Regulatory

A multi-node DER architecture that connects solar, batteries, EV charging, smart buildings, and industrial microgrids into a grid-interactive network. It combines real-time dispatch, AI forecasting, event-driven control, and tariff/subsidy optimization under a multi-tenant compliance model.

What it visualizes

  • distributed asset layer (PV, BESS, EVSE, buildings, microgrids)
  • grid interaction and internal energy flow types
  • AI optimization (load/price/carbon) and demand response control
  • streaming + event bus + API gateway with tenant isolation
  • tariff, subsidy, grid fees, and carbon accounting integration

Used for

  • designing grid-interactive DER networks
  • validating multi-tenant compliance models
  • optimizing real-time dispatch and AI forecasting
