| | | | | | At a conference in Bend, Oregon, speakers from Google, GridCARE, Schneider Electric and Think Microgrid offered up innovative ideas for integrating more distributed energy onto the grid. The audience also learned about “Frankenstein microgrids.” |

| | | | | | Free e-Book: The distributed energy landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace. As grid constraints, AI-driven electricity demand, electrification, and the need for greater energy resilience continue to reshape the power sector, microgrids and distributed energy resources (DERs) are playing an increasingly vital role. |

|
| | | | | | The project includes biogas conditioning, generators, emissions upgrades, and battery storage, providing continuous power during grid disruptions and supporting environmental goals through methane capture and renewable energy use. |

| | | | | | AGL Energy will own, operate and maintain the microgrid, which will support operations including watering at Koompartu Farms, as well as a nearby town. |
|
|
| | In many cases, no one has actually been tasked with designing the control logic, the sequence of operations, and the comms architecture. The project has been sold, a battery has been selected, and the question lands in our lap: “Who’s programming the relay?” |
