Abstract

According to an embodiment, disclosed is a system comprising an energy management module, electrically coupled to a utility meter, energy consuming devices and energy producing devices, comprising, a communication module configured to receive input energy data from utility meter, and energy information of energy consuming devices and energy producing devices; a processor storing instructions in a non-transitory memory that, when executed, cause the processor to: determine energy consumption data of the devices; identify a first device based on a first set of predefined priority values which requires energy; identify a second device based on a second set of predefined priority values which has excess energy; establish a connection and control energy transfer from the second device to the first device based on the energy consumption data and the input energy data to enable smart scheduling and power optimization among the energy consuming devices and the energy producing devices.
