Inventor(s) include M. Ebraheem.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a modular microgrid system for rural electrification using renewable energy sources and method employed thereof. modular microgrid system comprising an intelligent (smart) energy management unit is configured to perform load forecasting, priority-based energy scheduling, and real-time switching between available energy sources, continuously monitoring operational status and dynamically managing loads to enhance system efficiency, reliability, and adaptability. A blockchain-based peer-to-peer energy trading module is configured to autonomously verify energy generation, consumption, and trades, thereby enabling a trustless, efficient, and scalable energy marketplace within localized or off-grid communities. A self-healing mesh network forming the communication backbone of the microgrid, configured to enable real-time data and control signal exchange between nodes. A mobile application interface is configured to operate online and offline via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, enabling users to monitor energy consumption, battery status, and transaction history, initiate or approve peer-to-peer energy trades, and receive notifications related to system anomalies, overuse, or low battery levels, thereby enhancing user engagement and control in resource-limited or remote settings."
