Claim 5:
6. A computer system for intelligently determining a preferred power source for providing power to a building, the power source determined from a plurality of power sources, the computer system comprising:
a memory in communication with a processor, the memory comprising power source data, wherein the power source data includes external data and building data;
wherein the processor comprises:
a source determinator configured to analyze the power source data to determine the preferred power source from the plurality of power sources;
wherein the plurality of power sources includes a primary power source and a secondary power source;
wherein the processor is further configured to provide a power source hierarchy wherein the primary power source is an active power source and the secondary power source is an inactive power source; and wherein when a performance metric is not met by the primary power source, the secondary power source becomes the active power source and the primary power source is disabled from providing the power to the building;
a source controller module, and wherein the source controller module is configured to:
receive the preferred power source determination from the source determinator;
compare the preferred power source determination with active power source data, the active power source data stored in the memory; and
generate a control instruction based on the comparison of the preferred power source determination with the active power source data, wherein the control instruction includes at least disabling the primary power source and turning on the secondary power source.
