1. A system comprising:
- an energy storage device coupled to an electrical grid;
a plurality of sensors coupled to the electrical grid, the electrical grid comprising a plurality of metering nodes at different geographic locations, each sensor being coupled to a metering node;
a control system coupled to the energy storage device and the sensors, wherein the control system is configured to;
receive a measurement from each of the sensors;
determine, based on the received measurements, whether a grid event is a local event or a distributed event; and
select a response mode for controlling the energy storage device based on whether the grid event is determined to be a local event or a distributed event.

Abstract
A control system for an energy storage device is coupled to sensors on an electrical grid. The control system is configured to receive a measurement from each of the sensors. The control system determines, based on the received measurements, whether a grid event is a local event or a distributed event. The control system selects a response mode for controlling the energy storage device based on whether the grid event is determined to be a local event or a distributed event.
