Various embodiments include a control apparatus for controlling a power consumption and/or a power output of an energy system via a network connection point of a low-voltage network, wherein a line voltage can be detected at the network connection point by the control apparatus. The control apparatus comprises a processor programmed to reduce the power consumption and/or to increase the power output if the line voltage is below a first threshold value and/or to increase the power consumption and/or to reduce the power output if the line voltage is above a second threshold value greater than the first threshold value.

Control apparatus and method for controlling a power consumption and/or a power output of an energy system, and low-voltage network

Various embodiments include a method for regulating an electrical power transfer between two power supply units and a power consumption unit comprising: providing a first data set with information regarding a minimum and maximum electrical power supply rate for each of the two power supply units; providing a second data set with information regarding a power requirement of the power consumption unit and a weighting of each of the power supply units; providing a target function for an optimization method, wherein the target function includes the first data set, the second data set, and the weightings of the power supply units as parameters; and regulating the power transfer by means of an extremalization of the target function.

Method and regulating device for regulating an electrical power transfer

Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a device for controlling energy flows between components of an energy system with an energy accumulator comprising a controller for adjusting the energy flows. The controller computes the energy flows beforehand for a time domain using an optimization method, the time domain having a beginning and an end. A charge level of the energy accumulator at the end of the time domain is essentially equal to a charge level of the energy accumulator at the beginning of the time domain.
