To realize renewable-energy-based electri cation goals, a new concept the Energy Internet (EI) has been proposed, inspired by the most recent advances in information and telecommunication network technologies. Its features, such as plug-and-play mechanism, real-time bidirectional flow of energy, information, and money can lead to significant benefits and innovation in electricity production and. This work was supported in part by the Academy of Finland EE-IoT Project under Grant 319009, in part by the FIREMAN Consortium CHIST-ERA under Grant 326270, and in part by the EnergyNet Research Fellowship under Grant 321265 and Grant 328869. ABSTRACT The climate change crisis, exacerbated by the. China clearly pointed out in the “14th Five-Year Plan” that “accelerating the energy revolution, building a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system, and enhance the capability of ensure energy supply. We revisit some attempts to design a digital grid similar to the internet, including packetized management of specific loads (electric vehicles.
