    EI can serve as the foundation of smart cities and smart buildings., DRERs and DESDs) combined with legacy power systems, and supporting communication through the Internet, as shown in Figure 1. Energy Internet is a concept proposed to harness, control, and manage energy resources effectively, with the help of information and communication technology. Cyber-physical systems group - LUT University. Pedro Henrique Juliano. Abstract—This paper focuses on the management of the electricity grids using energy packets to build the Energy Internet via machine-type communications. In any case, this is real if and only if the power grid can handle increased use of renewable energy sources and distributed energy. This chapter presents the development of the Energy Internet throughout the history as an evolutionary solution based on modern technological development and needs, with the respect of its architecture, key features, and key concepts, such as energy router, prosumer, and virtual power plant.
