Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a grid control system for at least one electrical grid. The system includes at least one peer-to-peer network having at least one peer-to-peer application. The peer-to-peer application has a detecting means executable by a part of the nodes of the peer-to-peer network and is configured to detect a first peer-to-peer module assigned to a controllable electrical device upon a connection of the controllable electrical device with the electrical grid. The first peer-to-peer module is configured to communicate with the peer-to-peer application, and the peer-to-peer application includes a registering means executable by at least a part of the nodes of the peer-to-peer network and is configured to store at least one identifier assigned to the detected controllable electrical device and at least one switching pattern of the detected controllable electrical device.
