An electric power retention distribution cell apparatus and method of operation of the cell includes a rechargeable battery assembly, a bi-directional inverter and a switch control operatively connectable to an electric utility grid, an outside power charging supply and at least one end user wherein the cell is selectively switched between the electric utility grid and the battery assembly to supply electric power to the one or more end users. The cell is connected to the power charging supply for charging the battery assembly, and for dividing the battery assembly into groups of batteries for storage at a lower terminal output voltages of each group than the battery assembly output voltage when in use as the primary power supply. Electric power supply networks are also described for a utility hub network formed using two or more cells, and for a regional utility hub network formed using multiple utility hubs. |
