PACKETED ENERGY DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHODS

摘要

Methods and apparatus for packetized energy distribution are provided. A data and power delivery network, called a digital grid, is provided to facilitate delivery of power upon request. Energy bits (quanta) serve as a means to deliver energy as well as coding. Voltage pulses of varying time scales are used for coding and current levels help to accurately meet customer's demand. Energy is sent as packets (a combination of energy bits), and specific energy packets are addressed to specific customers permitting accurate monitoring and distribution of electrical energy.

主权项

1. A method of distributing energy in a power grid comprising assembling energy quanta into at least one energy packet, assigning a destination address to the at least one energy packet, and delivering the at least one energy packet to the destination address in response to a request for energy.
