1. An intelligent renewable based system comprising:
- a controller with a memory said memory having stored therein a program;
a plurality of data structures forming said program;
said program data structures controlling a multi-tier benefit optimization of a power grid;
said power grid having renewable power generating assets, water generating assets and controllable loads connectively disposed thereto; and
said multi-tier benefit optimization program maximizes the direct and indirect benefits generated by said renewable power generating assets, water generating assets and said controllable loads.

Abstract
A plurality of power generating assets are connected to a power grid. The grid may, if desired, be a local grid or a utility grid. The power grid is connected to a plurality of loads. The loads may, if desired, be controllable and non-controllable. Distribution of the power to the loads is via a controller that has a program stored therein that optimizes the controllable loads and the power generating assets. The optimization process is via multi-tier benefit construct.
