Actively explore microgrids to add resilience
This technology brief explores the role of microgrids as targeted resilience investments, clarifies how they differ from traditional backup power systems, and illustrates their real-world impact through both rural and urban case studies. Part 2 – What is a Microgrid?. In certain scenarios, microgrids may offer a more flexible resilience solution instead. Microgrids can operate independently from the main grid, sustain essential services during outages, and help reduce strain on transmission and distribution infrastructure. Developing. . “Resiliency is how robustly and flexibly a utility can respond to and recover from an event. ” Voices of Experience is an initiative sponsored by the U. This installment of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL's) Tell Me Something Grid series features Rory McIlmoil, a researcher in NREL's Grid Planning and Analysis Center. Booth, Samuel, James Reilly, Robert Butt, Mick Wasco, and Randy Monohan.
