Until now, electricity users are being connected to the LV networks by a physical electricity consumption point. In this point an electricity meter is assigned to each and every one user. A given user may use the flowing electricity only by the meter assigned to him at the consumer-specific point. This is a significant limitation in the non- restricted access to the power network. The Authors come with an idea to eliminate this restriction. The paper presents the concept of virtualization of a physical point of electric power consumption in a LV network. The proposed novel idea of using the power network will ensure the expected non-restricted access to any point of the power network for users. This seems particularly important nowadays and is dictated by the growing expectations of users’ mobility. The presented concept is dedicated especially to networks in the form of clusters (cooperatives) or energy clouds. Its application in LV networks will significantly simplify the users’ use of the power infrastructure, also in the aspect of financial settlements. This should also contribute to the rapid significant development of electro- mobility.
