Systems, methods, and apparatuses are disclosed for remote access, and management of a power grid and their associated loads. At least certain embodiments are configured for provisioning and control of decentralized non-grid connected power sources and corresponding power loads, including DC from photovoltaics (“PVs”) and AC from inverters, to a variety of power loads such as various electrical motors, lights as well as residential or business appliances. Aspects of the techniques described herein further include automated monitoring of various sensors including sensors that measure power, voltage, current, temperature, and humidity of the power sources as well as notification triggers and alarms to a feature phone. Other aspects are further adapted to track and receive payment for electric power from consumers connected with the decentralized non-grid power sources. The control of the power sources and loads can be bi-directional and can be performed using a smartphone that interfaces with a microcontroller.
