We often think of diesel as dirty, and view renewable microgrids as one way to eliminate the use of diesel and other fossil fuels. However, more and more, diesel-backed microgrids can be cleaner, if they rely on the newer, Tier-4 generators. It all depends on where the power is needed, what fuels are available, and how much the microgrid … [Read more...]
The Diesel Technology Forum explains why the US is developing microgrids and how diesel generators make them reliable. Microgrids are gaining attention lately. From issues relating to electricity reliability to climate change resiliency, more communities, municipalities and even the Department of Defense have plans to install small electricity … [Read more...]
The relevance of microgrids to the modern power system has become so significant that fewer and fewer players can afford to ignore them. And given performance expectations and the complexity of build, the demand for detailed microgrid simulation and testing facilities is high.
This report details how the integrated power system could look after the full implementation of the proposed plan, when outdated equipment not compliant with the federal Mercury and Air Toxics Standards has been retired and replaced by renewable generation supported by storage.
