Systems and Methods for Advanced Energy Network
First Claim
1. A system of an advanced energy network comprising:
- a platform communicatively connected to at least one distributed computing device operable for providing inputs from at least one energy user, wherein the platform is operable to;
create a user profile for the at least one energy user;
collect energy usage data for the at least one energy user;
associate the energy usage data with the user profile corresponding to the at least one energy user;
aggregate the energy usage data;
estimate projected energy usage for the at least one energy user, thereby creating projected energy usage data;
predict energy consumption data based on the energy usage data and the projected energy usage data; and
store the energy usage data, the projected energy usage data, and the predicted energy consumption data in a database.

Abstract
A multiplicity of participants comprising utility operators, distributed energy resource (DER) providers, vendors/aggregators, energy customers, and utility financial officers, are communicatively connected to a platform. The platform provides interactive interfaces for each type of participant to access the platform over communication network. Utility operators are enabled to view and control DER in a certain area via an interface for utility operators. DER providers are enabled to interconnect DER packages to a utility grid via an interface for DER providers. Vendors/aggregators are enabled to view and manage their portfolios via an interface for vendors/aggregators. Energy customers are enabled to view energy information, shop for new products or services, and manage rate plans via an interface for marketplace. Utility financial officers are enabled to view revenue streams from the platform to a utility via an interface for financial settlement.
