System and Method for a Database Layer for Managing a Set of Energy Consuming Devices

摘要

Embodiments of the present technology relate to systems and methods for operating a plurality of energy consuming devices. An example system for operating a plurality of energy consuming devices may comprise at least one device driver, comprising a database layer interface and a device layer interface, operating at least one device controller coupled to a plurality of energy consuming devices, the at least one device driver configured to poll each of the plurality of energy consuming devices for at least one of sensor data and output settings; a database for storing the at least one of sensor data and output settings for each of the plurality of energy consuming devices; and a processor coupled to the at least one device driver configured to compare the at least one of sensor data and output settings to criteria selected by a user.
