An energy management system is provided for controlling a controlled device connected to an energy supply network, which controlled device includes multiple energy-converting elements, wherein the sum of maximum energy conversions of the energy-converting elements is at least 3 kW. The energy management system may include modules that each provide functions used in the control of the controlled device, wherein planning function(s) for planning a future energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s), sensing function(s) for sensing parameter(s) that concern an instantaneous energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s), and control function(s) for specifying control parameter(s) that influence an energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s) are provided as functions. Each module may be designed to communicate with other one(s) of the modules via a communication connection, whereby functions of the module can be used by the other module and/or functions of the other module can be used by the module.
An energy management system for controlling a controlled facility that is connected to an energy supply grid and that has a plurality of energy converting elements, wherein the sum of the maximum energy conversions of the energy-converting elements is at least 3 kW, the energy management system comprising:
A computer software product for controlling a controlled facility that is connected to an energy supply grid and that has a plurality of energy converting elements, wherein the sum of the maximum energy conversions of the energy-converting elements is at least 3 kW, the computer software product comprising a plurality of computer programs stored in non-transitory computer-readable media and executable by one or more processor units interconnected in a communication network, the interconnected processor units providing an energy management system,
A method for controlling, by an energy management system, a controlled facility that is connected to an energy supply grid and that has a plurality of energy converting elements, wherein the sum of the maximum energy conversions of the elements is at least 3 kW, wherein the energy management system comprises a plurality of modules each providing at least one function used in controlling the controlled facility, wherein the functions include at least one planning function for planning a future energy conversion of at least one of the energy-converting elements, at least one acquisition function for acquiring at least one acquisition parameter that describes an energy conversion of at least one of the energy-converting elements, and a control function for predefining at least one control parameter that influences an energy conversion of at least one of the energy-converting elements, the method comprising
