Claim 10:
11. A method of distributing power from an aggregated distributed energy resources system (“DERs system”) having a plurality of assets, the method comprising:
using a plurality of asset managers to manage the assets, each asset including a local dedicated asset manager separate from the other asset managers or a central controller, each asset manager having an interface to receive asset information relating to its asset;
for each asset, producing a local cost function using its local dedicated asset manager, each local dedicated asset manager having a function generator producing its local cost function using data relating to its local asset, the cost functions of the plurality of assets in the DERs system together representing a system cost function for the overall DERs system;
determining, using the local cost function, an operating point for the given asset,
determining, using real data from the given asset, a turn-on time for the given asset,
determining, using real data from the given asset, a turn-off time for the given asset,
using the determined operating point, the turn-on time, and the turn-off time for the given asset to manage operation of the given asset in the DERs system.
