Hello folks
I have this idea about electricity being distributed similar to TCP-IP packets.
There's different nodes with different capabilities - producing packets (solar panels, wind generators etc.); consuming packets and also devices that can do both, like battery banks.
So, each device sends, for example 60V DC pulses in distinct schedule based on its capabilities and consumer requirements. Packet would consist of two parts. First part would be data bits and second part would be longer DC pulse: power bit. When consumer receives the packet, it first reads packet data. When the packet is for that consumer, it switches on it's capacitor charging circuit and charges the power byte into its capacitor.
Also, all of this sould be open source and DIY-able, which mean, it should use standard Arduino board. Or Raspberry PI.
The idea behind it is a sort of "1-wire protocol of electicity".
