SolarPulse Grid Controller

Design a system to manage a local microgrid consisting of solar panels, battery storage, and grid-connected appliances. The system must prioritize green energy usage, manage battery health through optimized charging cycles, and automatically shed non-essential loads (e.g., HVAC) when production drops. It must be extensible to support new device types (EV chargers, wind turbines) via a plugin architecture.
