Grid Communications

::: warning In Progress This chapter is incomplete - still being written/defined. :::

This section addresses communications between nodes that are independent of any particular link implementation and any particular communications implementation. This does not necessarily imply a particular level in the usual protocol stack. In some cases, high level functionality can be mapped to low level protocols.

Energy Transfer

Pricing based energy transfer between nodes with storage.

Device Monitoring and Management

Enumerate devices Report voltages and currents Report battery status

PAYGO

TBD

General ideas

  • Basic system control works without any higher-level communication, only based on measured grid voltage
  • Energy management and higher level control (incl. monitoring) should use a protocol independent of the lower layers. So it should allow both wired (e.g. CAN, RS485) as well as radio (GSM, LoRa, WiFi, etc.) transfer methods.
