Abstract
An example operation includes at least one of receiving, from at least one sensor at a location, data related to energy usage at the location, determining an energy-negative state exists at the location at a first period of time based on the data indicating energy usage at the location is greater than a threshold of energy provided from at least one energy storage device at the location, and recharging the at least one energy storage device at a second period of time commensurate with the energy usage at the location.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, from at least one sensor at a location, data related to energy usage at the location;
- determining an energy-negative state exists at the location at a first period of time based on the data indicating energy usage at the location is greater than a threshold of energy provided from at least one energy storage device at the location;
- and
- recharging the at least one energy storage device at a second period of time commensurate with the energy usage at the location.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory, wherein the processor and the memory are communicably coupled, wherein the processor:
- receives, from at least one sensor at a location, data related to energy usage at the location;
- determines an energy-negative state exists at the location at a first period of time based on the data indicates energy usage at the location is greater than a threshold of energy provided from at least one energy storage device at the location;
- and
- recharges the at least one energy storage device at a second period of time commensurate with the energy usage at the location.
A computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
- receiving, from at least one sensor at a location, data related to energy usage at the location;
- determining an energy-negative state exists at the location at a first period of time based on the data indicating energy usage at the location is greater than a threshold of energy provided from at least one energy storage device at the location;
- and
- recharging the at least one energy storage device at a second period of time commensurate with the energy usage at the location.
