Located on the island of Kauai, PMRF is evaluating the installation of a 44 MW solar array along with a storage battery that will both reduce costs and increase the energy security of the facility. It will also provide power to much of the island by feeding electricity onto Kauai Island Utility Cooperative’s energy grid.

Dr. Simpkins advised on the techno-economic modeling for the base.
