| | | | | | Located at Delta Electronics’ Detroit-area facility, the microgrid will leverage existing renewable energy assets and a new 13.2 kV medium voltage interconnection provided by DTE Energy. The “living laboratory” will test how energy assets interact with utility infrastructure under real operating conditions. |

| | | | | | Erie County, N.Y., was hit by a deadly blizzard in 2022 that knocked out power for up to 4 days. A new microgrid–funded in part by a 40% Investment Tax Credit–will keep power flowing, lower capacity charges and improve air quality by eliminating the need for a diesel backup generator. |

| | | | | | The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Family Outreach Center in the East Central Spokane neighborhood worked with utility Avista to develop the solar and energy storage microgrid. The system will cut the center’s electricity bills and enable it to provide essential community services, even during extended power outages. |

| | | | | | In the face of declining compensation from net metering, Washington state is conducting a value of solar and storage study in an effort to place a value on resilience, reliability and other issues. Oregon’s solar industry wants to conduct a similar study in the hopes it will show solar’s benefits–other than capacity– and help expand the state’s community... |
