Batteries traditionally play the energy storage role. The goal of the Maxwell Technologies ultracapacitor bank installation on the UC San Diego’s microgrid was to see if ultracapacitors can provide a more cost-effective energy storage system for microgrids—and better response time—than batteries. Maxwell Technologies’ Jessica Baris explores the ins and outs of the innovative ultracapacitor energy storage system on UC San Diego’s microgrid.
An advanced microgrid offers both power supply and energy savings and derives value from each. And that’s just the start of the complex stream of economic benefits that can emanate from a microgrid; others include electric reliability, resiliency, energy security, emissions reductions and energy bill savings. This paper provides an overview of microgrid financing and how the microgrid controller can help your microgrid reach maximum return on investment.
