A METHOD, A SYSTEM, A SERVER FOR OPERATING A POWER GRID

1 . A method for operating a power grid, wherein devices that form part of said power grid are represented as virtual resources, comprising:

receiving a request to access at least one virtual resource, and

providing access to a device of said power grid that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein multiple devices that form part of said power grid are represented as one virtual resource, in particular as a cluster.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of said devices are electrically connectable to embody a single virtual resource.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein multiple devices are adapted to represent the same virtual resource, and wherein at least one of said multiple devices is selected to be made accessible to embody the requested at least one virtual resource.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

determining information about a virtual resource that represents at least one device of said power grid, and

sending information about said virtual resource.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising determining a characteristic of a first resource of said power grid, in particular when the load on a power transmission line of said power grid is below a predetermined threshold, and to transfer power from a second resource, in particular a first power storage, to a third resource, in particular a second power storage, via said first resource, in particular said power transmission line, depending on the characteristic, in particular in case said load is below said predetermined threshold.

7 . A server for operating a power grid, wherein devices that form part of said power grid are represented as virtual resources, comprising:

a receiver adapted to receive a request to access at least one virtual resource, and

a processor adapted to determine a device of said power grid that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource to be made accessible.

8 . The server according to claim 7 , further comprising

a sender adapted to send information about said at least one virtual resource.

9 . The server according to claim 7 , further comprising

an actuator adapted to provide access to said device that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource.

10 . The server according to claim 7 , further comprising:

a processor adapted to determine information about a virtual resource representing at least on device of said power grid, and

a sender adapted to send information about said virtual resource.

11 . A system for operating a power grid, wherein devices that form part of said power grid are represented as virtual resources, comprising:

a receiver adapted to receive a request to access at least one virtual resource,

a processor adapted to determine a device of said power grid that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource to be made accessible, and

an actuator adapted to make said device of said power grid that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource accessible.

12 . A computer program, wherein said computer program, when executed on a computer, causes the computer to perform the steps of the method according to claim 1 .

13 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer readable instructions encoded therein, said computer readable instructions adapted to be executed to implement a method, comprising:

receiving a request to access at least one virtual resource, and

providing access to a device of a power grid that embodies the requested at least one virtual resource.
