Apparatus and method for changing a power consumption profile of at least one person in a home or residential unit having a distribution network

摘要

The present invention relates to a device (100) for changing a power consumption profile (SVP1, SVP2) of at least one person in a house or in a residential unit having a distribution network (40), the device (100) comprising: an electrical energy storage device (45) , which is adapted to store electrical energy, a power switch device (55), which is coupled to the electrical energy storage device (45) and the distribution network (40) and which is adapted to electrical energy flow between the electrical energy storage device (45 ) and the distribution network (40) on and off; and a control device (50) which is designed to control the electrical energy flow based on at least one adjustable criterion and thereby to change the power consumption profile (SVP1, SVP2) of the distribution network (40).
