Abstract:
1. A method of managing and modulating in real time the electrical consumption of a set of consumers, said method comprising the steps of: a) measuring continuously and in real time the electrical consumption of a plurality of targeted sets of electrical equipment in operation, each set of equipment being situated in the home of a consumer, the measurement of the electrical consumption of such equipment being performed individually or overall by means of an electrical regulation module situated in the home of the consumer, each module being directly linked with the electrical power supply circuits of such equipment; b) transmitting in “push” mode by said modules of the electrical consumption measurements to a central server programmed to read and analyze these data; c) establishing continuously, based on the transmitted electrical consumption measurements, an individual consumption profile of each consumer to deduce therefrom an individual prediction of said each consumer's consumption and the available capacities; d) establishing a global setpoint as a function of said available curtailment capacities, at a given moment, indicating to cancel a certain total power, and sending by said server, to certain of said modules selected according to said global setpoint and the history of the modulations already occurring on each site, of the instruction to selectively and temporarily cut the electrical power supply to the electrical equipment with which the selected modules are linked; and e) receiving and executing, by these modules, of the instruction sent by said server.
