The Transactional Network

• The transactional network enables energy saving retrofit solutions AND the networked systems to transactwith the grid to mitigate variable distributed renewable energy sources
• Initially, the transactional concept is demonstrated using networked RTUs
• In the future, the concept can be extended to network other building systems, interaction between buildings and electric vehicles
• Work is being done at the three national laboratories
