Lin, Yiqing; Oggianu, Stella M.

A microgrid controller includes a database in communication with a processor. The processor is operable to receive at least one microgrid input, to determine a first plurality of optimal power characteristic levels at a corresponding one of a plurality of first time intervals for a first time period, and to determine a second plurality of optimal power characteristic levels of a device determined at a corresponding one of a plurality of second time intervals for a second time period. The first time intervals are found at a first frequency different than a second frequency of the second time intervals. One of the second plurality of optimal power characteristic level corresponds to one of the first plurality of optimal power characteristic levels at each first time interval. The processor is configured to control a device optimal power characteristic level in response to the second plurality of optimal power characteristic levels.
