The present invention is directed to a system and method which allows each end-user (or a combined number of end-users) to set controls for each of the user's energy using systems at one or more premises. Each end-user, for each premise, then can determine, based on a digital copy of a holistic view of the premise, how it will manage the premises. In one embodiment, this system and method ties into a network of sensors which, in turn, is tied into a larger service network that controls the distribution system services throughout a wide area. In operation, in one embodiment, sensors associated with each system, appliance, or piece of equipment on a premise feeds data back to a main control unit serving that premise or the plurality of premises so as to form the digital copy. The digital copy can also be fed to larger nodes which, in turn, can feed the data to the wide area service
