Electric power system control with planning of energy demand and energy efficiency using ami-based data analysis

A control system for an electric power grid configured to supply electric power from a supply point to a plurality of consumption locations, the system comprising:

• a plurality of sensors, wherein each sensor is located at a respective one of a plurality of distribution locations on the electric power grid at or between the supply point and at least one of the plurality consumption locations, and wherein each sensor is configured to sense at least one component of a supplied electric power received at the respective consumption location and at least one of the plurality of sensors is configured to generate measurement data based on the sensed component of the power;
• and,
• a controller configured to receive the measurement data from the sensors and to communicate with at least one component adjusting device to adjust a component of the electric power grid based on a control point, wherein the controller is configured to determine an energy savings for at least one modification to the electric power grid,
• wherein the at least one component adjusting device is configured to adjust a component of the electric power grid based on the at least one control point.
