We have been working with our partners Clean Energy Group and American Microgrid Solutions to analyze a variety of facilities for the potential to install resilient power. We recently participated in a CEG webinar where we discussed our real-world experience with these types of projects. So if you’ve already watched that webinar and are here to learn more, welcome!

CEG defines resilient power as follows:

Resilient power is the ability not only to provide critical power to essential facilities and services during a power outage, but also to provide economic benefits throughout the year, by reducing power bills and generating revenue through providing services to utilities and grid operators.

If you’re interested in power resiliency, you’ll want to check out this upcoming Clean Energy Group webinar featuring muGrid Analytics’ own Dr. Travis Simpkins along with our partner Geoff Oxnam of American Microgrid Solutions talking real projects, real economics, and real tradeoffs.

muGrid Analytics will be at Solar Power International from September 10-13, 2017. SPI is the largest solar trade show in North America and is being held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. We will be presenting some of our recent work with AvalonBay Communities and Host Hotels and Resorts at the poster session on Monday evening. Amy Simpkins, muGrid’s Director of Business Development, will staff the poster session, so please stop by and say hi.

muGrid Analytics is pleased to announce that we have been selected as a featured technical consultant for the Solar in Your Community Challenge sponsored by the Department of Energy. This $5M nationwide competition is aimed at expanding solar to low and moderate income (LMI) households; state, local, and tribal governments; and non-profit organizations, all of which have been underserved in the rapidly developing solar market.
