Abstract
A method for planning and/or controlling an energy output to a consumer and/or an energy supply to an energy distribution network includes generating at and transmitting from a first energy supplier first messages relating to current tariffs and/or planned tariffs to be expected and/or expected network loads, and relating to a value for a probability that the expected current or planned tariffs and the expected network capacity utilization will actually occur.

A method for planning or controlling an energy supply to a consumer or to an energy distribution network, comprising the steps of:
- generating at and transmitting from a first energy supplier first messages selected from current tariffs or planned tariffs to be expected, an expected network capacity utilization, a probability that the expected current or planned tariffs will actually occur, and a probability that the expected network capacity utilization will actually occur,
- generating at and transmitting from a second energy supplier second messages selected from current or planned tariffs to be expected, an expected network capacity utilization, a probability that the expected current or planned tariffs will actually occur, and a probability that the expected network capacity utilization will actually occur,
- receiving at least one of the first and second messages with a first control unit,
- informing the first control unit about an energy demand of a consumer connected to a controllable switching device and a time frame for covering the energy demand,
- determining with the first control unit a time schedule for supplying energy to the consumer based on at least one of the first messages and the second messages, and
- connecting the switching device through within the time frame according to the determined schedule.
