1. A method for configuring a microgrid comprising a virtual power plant having a plurality of power generation sources and a plurality of power loads, the method comprising:
initializing a first configuration of the microgrid having at least one distributed energy resource and a set of microgrid elements, the set of microgrid elements being connected in a peer-to-peer processor network; verifying an address for each element in the set of microgrid elements; receiving status data from the set of microgrid elements that indicates a reconfiguration of the microgrid; responsive to receiving status data from the set of microgrid elements that indicates the reconfiguration of the microgrid, re-aligning the set of microgrid elements to form a second grid configuration; executing the second grid configuration; permitting remote clients using an Internet connection to access a microgrid local area network only through a single, common redundant network port, wherein a set of cyber-security methods and tools are implemented on the single, common redundant network port; permitting the remote clients to access the status data and load data associated with the microgrid; and denying the remote clients access to control functions associated with the microgrid. |
