Description

Event processing method of integrated energy operating platform {METHOD FOR PROCESSING EVENTS OF INTEGRATED ENERGY OPERATING PLATFORM}

The present invention relates to a center that integrally operates an energy management system corresponding to a company or workplace, an operation method thereof, and an event processing method.

In recent years, a problem with power supply and demand has arisen because the power supply cannot keep up with the power demand due to the continuously increasing power demand. As a solution to these problems, efficient energy management is becoming important.

Conventional energy management is carried out in such a way as to check the amount of power used in a specific factory, charge for the amount of power consumption, or request power saving, so that only the energy of a specific factory can be individually managed. A system for managing the energy of such a specific factory is called a Factory Energy Management System (FEMS).
