Distributed & Autonomous Energy Grid

A scalable and distributed framework for energy grids.

Terminologies

• EP Address (Energy Prosumer Address) is the unique address of a prosumer. This address is scoped using : to signify the network level. For example prosumer of address 1F28:1992:1990:1001 and 1F28:1992:1990:2939 lies in the same microgrid. Whereas, 1F28:1992:1929:1003 and 1F28:1992:F266:1003 lies in another microgrid that is connected directly through one level above (i.e. parent grid of the microgrid).

ECP Energy Contract Protocol

// TODO, Research on existing protocols, or create our own protocol.
