Qbots’ mission is to build and operate a Federated Power Plant (FPP) that aggregates and utilises flexibility in consumer demand along with renewables & battery storage to enable localised trading and balancing, for building smart energy systems of the future. Qbots AI powers two levels of prediction and control; one at the site level and one at the network level. The AI model on-site enables buildings to respond to notifications from the electricity grid to shift their electricity demand & use battery storage, while maintaining thermal comfort for its tenants and any constraints. At the network level is the Qbots power matcher application facilitates renewable energy trading, accounting for the time and location of energy generation, storage and consumption along with other preferences.
