Abstract

A system for delivery of electrical energy includes a first electrical power distribution station assigned a first electrical power distribution identifier and a second electrical power distribution station assigned a second electrical power distribution identifier. An electrical power distribution control entity is configured to receive, when electrical power is requested from the first electrical power distribution station, the first electrical power distribution identifier and power request identifier, and configured to receive, when electrical power is requested from the second electrical power distribution station, the second electrical power distribution identifier and the power request identifier. The power request identifier is assigned a user or a group of users and/or a device configured to require or provide electrical power.

Claims

1-17. -17. (canceled)

18. A system for deliver of electrical energy, the system comprising:

a first electrical power distribution station assigned a first electrical power distribution identifier;

a second electrical power distribution station assigned a second electrical power distribution identifier; and

an electrical power distribution control entity configured to receive, when electrical power is requested from the first electrical power distribution station, the first electrical power distribution identifier and power request identifier, and configured to receive, when electrical power is requested from the second electrical power distribution station, the second electrical power distribution identifier and the power request identifier;

wherein the power request identifier is assigned to at least one of;

a user or a group of users; and

a device configured to require or provide electrical power.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein the power request identifier corresponds to an identify represented by an identification card selected from the group consisting of:

a national card, a multinational identity card, a credit card, a subscriber identity module (SIM) card, a universal subscriber identity module (USIM) card, and a prepaid card.

20. The system of claim 18, wherein the power request identifier is a unique identifier.

21. The system of claim 18, wherein the power request identifier comprises:

an identifier part related to the user or to the group of users requesting power.

22. The system of claim 18, wherein the power request identifier comprises:

an identifier part related to the device requesting power.

23. The system of claim 18, wherein the first electrical power distribution identifier corresponds to a first electrical power provider and the second electrical power distribution identifier corresponds to a second electrical power provider.

24. The system of claim 18, wherein the electrical power distribution identifier is received by the electrical power distribution control entity via a mobile communication transmission line, wherein the mobile communication transmission line is at least one of:

between the user or a user of the group of users requesting power and the electrical power distribution control entity; and

between the device requesting power and the electrical power distribution control entity.

25. The system of claim 18, wherein the power request includes at least one of:

an indication of a quantity of electrical power consumption;

an indication of a consumption tune of electrical power consumption;

an indication of profile information related to at least one of the user or the group of users or the device; and

an indication of charging history information related to at least one of the user or the group of users or the device.

26. The system of claim 18, wherein the electrical power distribution control entity is an energy broker.

27. A method for delivery of electrical energy using at least a first electrical power distribution station corresponding to a first electrical power distribution identifier and a second electrical power distribution station corresponding to a second electrical power distribution identifier, the method comprising:

receiving, by an electrical power distribution control entity, when electrical power is requested from the first electrical power distribution station, the first electrical power distribution identifier and power request identifier; and

receiving, by the electrical power distribution control entity, when electrical power is requested from the second electrical power distribution station, the second electrical power distribution identifier and the power request identifier;

wherein the power request identifier is assigned to at least one of;

a user or a group of users; and

a device configured to require or provide electrical power.

28. The method of claim 27, wherein the power request identifier comprises:

an identifier part related to the user or to the group of users requesting power.

29. The method of claim 27, wherein the power request identifier comprises:

an identifier part related to the device requesting power.

30. The method of claim 27, wherein the first electrical power distribution identifier corresponds to a first electrical power provider and the second electrical power distribution identifier corresponds to a second electrical power provider.

31. The method of claim 27, wherein the electrical power distribution identifier is received by the electrical power distribution control entity via a mobile communication transmission line between the user or a user of the group of users requesting power and the electrical power distribution control entity.

32. The method of claim 27, wherein the power request includes at least one of:

an indication of a quantity of electrical power consumption;

an indication of a consumption time of electrical power consumption;

an indication of profile information related to at least one of the user or the group of users or the device; and

an indication of charging history information related to at least one of the user or the group of users or the device.

33. A non-transitory computer-readable medium, part of an electrical power distribution control entity, having processor-executable instructions stored thereon for delivery of electrical energy using at least a first electrical power distribution station corresponding to a first electrical power distribution identifier and a second electrical power distribution station corresponding to a second electrical power distribution identifier, the processor-executable instructions comprising instructions for:

receiving, by an electrical power distribution control entity, when electrical power is requested from the first electrical power distribution station, the first electrical power distribution identifier and power request identifier; and

receiving, by the electrical power distribution control entity, when electrical power is requested from the second electrical power distribution station, the second electrical power distribution identifier and the power request identifier;

wherein the power request identifier is assigned to at least one of;

a user or a group of users; and

a device configured to require or provide electrical power.
