4 FAQs about Domestic Microgrid Demonstration Center

What is the microgrid systems laboratory?

We work to help drive that change The Microgrid Systems Laboratory is a collaborative effort to speed the transition to a more resilient, sustainable, and accessible electricity system. Microgrids are community-scaled smart energy networks, and are enabling infrastructure for smart grid and other advanced energy technologies.

How do microgrids integrate with EVS?

Integration with Electric Vehicles (EVs): Microgrids are starting to use EVs as mobile storage units, which can both charge from and supply energy back to the grid. Hybrid Systems: Combining different energy sources (like solar with natural gas) to ensure continuous supply and optimize for different conditions.

How can microgrids reduce energy costs?

By generating and using local renewable energy, communities using microgrids can reduce their reliance on more costly electricity from traditional grids, leading to significant savings on energy bills. Additionally, battery storage allows for the use of stored energy during peak demand times (AKA peak shaving), further cutting costs.

Can Microgrid technology protect neighborhoods from power outages?

As more residential communities experience extended periods of power outages, increasing numbers of communities, as well as new housing developers, are investigating microgrid technology as a means to safeguard their neighborhoods from both rising, unpredictable energy costs, as well as sporadic service.
