This chapter presents the development of the Energy Internet throughout the history as an evolutionary solution based on modern technological development and needs, with the respect of its architecture, key features, and key concepts, such as energy router, prosumer, and virtual. What was once a centralized, one-way system is becoming a dynamic, distributed and deeply connected digital network, something I often describe as building the "energy internet. " With millions of interconnected nodes — solar, wind, storage, electric vehicles (EVs), smart buildings and more — all. Extensive electrification based on renewable energy sources is seen as one of the most potential growth options to tackle these issues in the medium to long term. In any case, this is real if and only if the power grid can handle increased use of renewable energy sources and distributed energy. Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering ( (LNCE,volume 292)) China clearly pointed out in the "14th Five-Year Plan" that "accelerating the energy revolution, building a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system, and enhance the capability of ensure energy supply.
