4 FAQs about Land use regulations for communication base station inverter grid-connected projects

How do I use communication technology to support grid requirements?

Applying the appropriate communication technology to support grid requirements depends upon many factors beyond just the communication technology, how it is deployed (e.g., architecture) and operations. One method is to start with the grid services or processes needing support.

Does NLR support a microgrid battery energy storage system?

NLR supported the development and acceptance testing of a microgrid battery energy storage system developed by EaglePicher Technologies as part of an effort sponsored by U.S. Northern Command. The three-tiered, 300-kW/386-kWh grid-tied system is capable of providing grid stabilization, microgrid support, and on-command power response.

What is grid communication?

Much of grid communication is performed over purpose-built communication networks owned and maintained by grid utilities. Broadly speaking, grid communication systems are comprised of multiple transport technologies and protocols carried by a variety of media.

How can communications support the grid of the future?

Ensuring the reliable and resilient delivery of electrical energy is critical for the U.S. economy, which increasingly relies on secure communications systems to support grid operations. Adapting to the grid of the future requires a comprehensive understanding of the differences between communication technologies that support grid operations.
