Abstract

Energy systems and energy supply methods are described. In one aspect, an energy system includes a bus system configured to conduct electrical energy, a plurality of input adapters electrically coupled with the bus system and configured to electrically couple with a plurality of respective source entities which are individually configured to provide electrical energy, a plurality of output adapters electrically coupled with the bus system and configured to electrically couple with a plurality of respective consuming entities which are individually configured to consume electrical energy, and control circuitry configured to control individual ones of the input adapters to provide electrical energy from respective ones of the source entities to the bus system and to control individual ones of the output adapters to provide electrical energy from the bus system to respective ones of the consuming entities.
