The most successful biological organisms avoid centralised control in favour of allowing multiple agents to sense independently and respond quickly to environmental change. The OCTOPUS, which has a powerful central brain, knows how to balance its advanced cognitive capabilities with quick responsiveness by decentralising the decision-making function. Similarly, distributed and decentralised energy systems using renewable energy can be designed to adapt more quickly to changing energy demands.
