Abstract

Method and apparatus configured to receive a plurality of power flow data from at least a grid monitoring device connected to a grid network including a plurality of nodes, generate a power flow allocation for at least a node in the network as a function of the at least a power consumption datum and the at least a generation datum, determine a carbon flow as a function of the power flow allocation and a first set of stored relational rules, generate an objective function of a carbon flow and a second set of stored relational rules, minimize the objective function of a carbon flow as a function of the carbon optimization model and an optimization algorithm, generate a grid modification as a function of the minimization; and modify a grid parameter of the grid network as a function of the grid modification.
