A system, method, and apparatus for a standalone, mobile adapter for load control of energy consuming/storage devices. Adapter includes a power management module (“PMM”) that generates a simulated power control signal (“PCS”) with a reduced allowable power consumption, compared to an authentic PCS from electric vehicle service equipment (“EVSE”) power supply. An internally or externally controlled switch coupled to the PMM, selectively replaces the authentic PCS with the simulated PCS and communicates it to the load, thereby reducing the load's ability to draw power. The simulated PCS can be controlled and managed remotely by the user, and/or by an aggregating load server to provide value to the EV consumer, and stability and load-levelling to the power grid. Adapter includes functions of metering/measuring energy, regulation of energy consumption, direction of energy flow, safety monitoring, reporting of energy transfer, and location identification.
