⚡ Energy Routing: The Internet of Energy (IoE)
Traditional grids operate on a centralized, passive model where electricity "flows" downstream from power plants to consumers. In the era of renewables and EVs, this model is becoming obsolete. Energy Routing treats electricity like data packets, enabling a dynamic, prioritized, and optimized flow across the grid.
🧠 Why Energy Routing?
Modern challenges require intelligent solutions:
- Intermittency: Managing the sudden dips in solar and wind production.
- Grid Resilience: Automatically rerouting power during localized failures to prevent blackouts.
- Decentralization: Coordinating thousands of small-scale producers (microgrids).
