1. An energy management system comprising:

  • (a) a controller receiving electrical pricing information from a remotely located electrical utility company, said controller measuring electrical power usage of a customer, and said controller providing said electrical power usage to said remotely located electrical utility company;

    (b) said controller suitable to receive information regarding energy storage of a customer'"'"'s electrical power storage;

    (c) said controller suitable to receive power information regarding a power generation source of said customer that;

    generates electricity which is separate and apart from power provided to said customer by said electrical utility;

    (d) said controller modifying the power usage of said energy management system based upon said pricing information, a prediction of said electrical power usage during each of a plurality of sequential days, said energy storage, said power information, wherein said pricing information includes a plurality of temporal pricing levels and a temporal peak pricing level, where said prediction of said electrical power usage during a one of said plurality of sequential days is refined during said one of said plurality of sequential days, where said modification is based upon a prediction of electrical power generation from said power generation source during each of said plurality of sequential days, and wherein said prediction of electrical power generation includes a prediction of peak power generation during said day.
