Energy storage scheduling system

A dynamic, adaptive energy scheduling system operating on a real-time basis, and receiving feedback information with respect to an energy network or system under its control, said dynamic, adaptive energy scheduling system comprising:

• storage means for storing electrical energy;
• electrical energy generating means for supplying electrical energy to said storage means;
• electrical energy consumption means electrically connected to said storage means for drawing electrical energy therefrom in order to run electrical equipment;
• a programmable electrical energy scheduling means connected between said storage means, said electrical consumption means and said electrical energy generating means, and operating on a real-time basis, said programmable electrical energy scheduling means being programmed with data representing previous energy consumption and temperature cycles of said electrical energy consumption means, and receiving data representing real-time temperature data and energy consumption data from said electrical energy consumption means, said programmable electrical energy scheduling means receiving information from said storage means with respect to its state of electrical charge, said programmable electrical energy scheduling means receiving electrical energy pricing information on a real-time basis from said electrical energy generating means and possible override signals indicative of electrical energy generating emergencies, said dynamic, adaptive energy scheduling system having adaptive behavior reflecting ongoing changes or load-shedding requirements of said electrical generating means, said programmable energy scheduling means predict and schedule future energy usage of said electrical energy consumption means, based upon a previous energy profile corresponding to a similar energy usage cycle of said electrical energy consumption means and the most recently received data in order to provide efficient storage and an electrical energy draw from said storage means.
