Claim 0:
1. A method for delivering energy to a node in a power system,
wherein the node comprises one or more energy storage systems and a load, the method comprising:
sizing the energy storage systems, including power and energy ratings, at each node based on expected load and local generation;
scheduling delivery of energy packets based on parameters selected from a group comprising grid constraints, generation constraints, energy storage constraints, system operating costs and energy storage degradation;
controlling switches that route scheduled energy to at least one energy storage system of the energy storage systems at the correct time to enable packetized delivery of energy; and
controlling switches that route unscheduled energy to the energy storage systems at the correct nodes at the correct time to enable packetized delivery of energy.
