Multi-Layer Adaptive Power Demand Management For Behind The Meter Energy Management Systems

摘要

Systems and methods for adaptive demand charge management in a behind the meter energy management system. The system and method includes determining, in a first layer, an initial demand charge threshold (DCT), for a first period, based on historical DCT profiles, and generating recursively, in a second layer, a forecast of a power demand for a second period, wherein the second period is a subset of the first period. Further included is combining the first layer and the second layer to recursively modify the initial DCT with a DCT adjustment value to generate a modified DCT, wherein the DCT adjustment value is optimized according to the forecast of power demand for the second period, and controlling batteries according to the modified DCT, wherein the batteries are discharged if power demand is above the modified DCT, and the batteries are charged if the power demand is below the modified DCT.
