| Abstract: | Various technologies described herein pertain to an electrical outlet
that autonomously manages loads in a microgrid. The electrical outlet can
provide autonomous load control in response to variations in electrical
power generation supply in the microgrid. The electrical outlet includes
a receptacle, a sensor operably coupled to the receptacle, and an
actuator configured to selectively actuate the receptacle. The sensor
measures electrical parameters at the receptacle. Further, a processor
autonomously controls the actuator based at least in part on the
electrical parameters measured at the receptacle, electrical parameters
from one or more disparate electrical outlets in the microgrid, and a
supply of generated electric power in the microgrid at a given time. |
