Systems and techniques for tolerance-based intelligent edge network energy delivery are described herein. A flexibility metric may be calculated for a node of the edge network. The flexibility metric of the node and flexibility metrics of a set of additional nodes of the edge network may be ranked to create a set of flexibility ranked edge nodes. A notification may be received of a demand response event. A candidate node subset may be identified from the set of flexibility ranked nodes based on requirements of the demand response event and a ranked order the set of flexibility ranked nodes. A demand response command may be transmitted to the candidate node subset upon determining that the candidate node subset satisfies the requirements of the demand response event. The demand response command may cause nodes of the candidate node subset to alter energy consumption for a time period of demand response event.

Tolerance-based intelligent edge network energy delivery

In one example, an autonomy system assigns a trust level to a vehicle, wherein the trust level is a lowest trust level. The autonomy system may modify the trust level to fully autonomous in response to an indicator light providing a fully autonomous status prior to a maneuver as indicated by the indicator light. Additionally, the autonomy system may modify the trust level to driver controlled in response to the indicator light providing a driver controlled status prior to the maneuver as indicated by the indicator light.

Communicating the autonomy status of vehicles

Techniques and mechanisms for determining constraints to be imposed on resource utilization by customers of an electric utility. In an embodiment, flexibility metrics are determined each for a different respective customer, the flexibility metrics each indicating a respective difference between a metric of resource utilization, and a respective constraint which is imposed on that resource utilization. The customers are ranked, relative to one another, based on the flexibility metrics, where the ranking is used as a basis for selecting one or more customers to accommodate a change to a power delivery service of the electric utility. In another embodiment, one or more updated utilization constraints are imposed each by a respective customer of one or more selected customers.

Various systems and methods for implementing an anti-collision mechanism are described herein. A system for a lead vehicle to provide a visible light communication (VLC) message to a trailing vehicle behind the lead vehicle includes a vehicle controller subsystem of the lead vehicle, to: receive from a sensor array interface, sensor data from a forward-facing sensor incorporated into the lead vehicle; determine, using a processor, from the sensor data that a hazard exists; initiate the application of brakes with a braking force; and initiate, via a light controller, a VLC message to the trailing vehicle, the VLC message including the braking force.
