Local metering response to data aggregation in distributed grid node

A consumer node in a grid network of a power grid system, comprising:

• an energy meter on a consumer side of a point of common coupling (PCC) to the grid network, the energy meter to receive multiple inputs indicating an electrical condition of the grid network and local operating conditions at the PCC, and to identify power demand for a local load coupled to the consumer side of the PCC;
• a local power converter coupled to the consumer side of the PCC, the power converter to control an interface to the PCC to control power flow at the PCC;
• and
• a gateway controller coupled to receive information from the energy meter, to calculate a mix of real and reactive power to output from a local energy source, based on the multiple inputs and the power demand for the local load, and to request the power converter to output the calculated output power.

A power grid system, comprising:

• a grid connector to couple a local consumer node to a utility power grid at a consumer side of a point of common coupling (PCC);
• a local energy source coupled on the consumer side of the PCC;
• and
• a control node coupled to the local energy source at the PCC, the control node including
• an energy meter on a consumer side of a point of common coupling (PCC) to the grid network, the energy meter to receive multiple inputs indicating an electrical condition of the grid network and local operating conditions at the PCC, and to identify power demand for a local load coupled to the consumer side of the PCC;
• a local power converter coupled to the consumer side of the PCC, the power converter to control an interface to the PCC to control power flow at the PCC;
• and
• a gateway controller coupled to receive information from the energy meter, to calculate a mix of real and reactive power to output from the local energy source, based on the multiple inputs and the power demand for the local load, and to request the power converter to output the calculated output power.
