Integrated Energy Management System: Concept, Design, and Demonstration in China

Abstract

The Energy Internet (EI), an interlocked combination of energy systems and the Internet, is an emerging concept that embodies the contours of the next-generation energy system. The EI is a new energy ecosystem with better interconnectedness, openness, and flexibility, aiming to accommodate deep-penetration, clean energies; improve energy efficiency; and create a novel sharing economy to significantly reduce the cost of energy consumption.
