About Microgrids

• Power systems that can operate autonomously or grid connected

• Can use combinations of conventional generation (diesel, CHP), renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass), fuel cells, energy storage and load management systems

• Provide reliability from service outages

• Help to stabilize the utility grid, especially with high penetrations of variable renewable energy generation

• Fuel savings and positive environmental impact :– energy fuel costs on islands can range from $0.40 – $2.00 per kWh, and islands

have excellent solar and wind resources– Four hundred % increase in oil prices over last 5 years, microgrids make good

financial sense– Less diesel consumption using renewables has a positive environmental impact
