GRID
DSO requests metering information of total consumption and may send setpoints in case of high grid loads to EMS or device
METER
The Meter is providing the buildings’ total power consumption to the EMS / control box
EMS
The EMS receives power limitation setpoint from control box and dispatches available power to the corresponding devices according to the comfort preferences set by the end-customer
EVSE/EV
The EVSE/EV may be connected directly to the control box or through an EMS in case of multiple controllable devices such as PV and EV. The EV will be charged within the limits given by the DSO or the EMS. Through the option of power limitation, the EV user may get a higher connection capacity
HVAC
The HVAC may be connected directly to the control box or through an EMS in case of multiple controllable devices such as PV and heat pump. The heat pump will be operated within the limits given by the DSO or the EMS
PV Inverter / Battery
The PV Inverter / Battery may be connected directly to the control box or through an EMS in case of multiple controllable devices such as PV and EV / heat pump. The PV inverter or battery will provide grid support (e.g. P, Q) according to DSOs’ setpoint
