    A new stochastic control methodology is introduced for distributed control, motivated by the goal of creating virtual energy storage from flexible electric loads, i.e. Demand Dispatch. In recent work, the authors have introduced Kullback- Leibler-Quadratic (KLQ) optimal control as a stochastic control methodology for Markovian models. This paper develops KLQ theory and demonstrates its applicability to demand dispatch. In one formulation of the design, the grid balancing authority simply broadcasts the desired tracking signal, and the hetero-geneous population of loads ramps power consumption up and down to accurately track the signal. Analysis of the Lagrangian dual of the KLQ optimization problem leads to a menu of solution options, and expressions of the gradient and Hessian suitable for Monte-Carlo-based optimization. Numerical results illustrate these theoretical results.
