Jenbacher North America presents: Microgrids – Flexible Power for Resiliency and Market Optimization
Microgrids are certainly a trend in North America, providing a secure supply of energy to businesses and communities within a microgrid, which is important with the growing frequency of natural disasters and possibility of blackouts in “macrogrids”.
Microgrids are decentralized power solutions that produce energy and supply it to the local consumers. Such microgrids can operate both in parallel with external centralized grids (macrogrids) and in an isolated (island) mode. In some cases, microgrids can transfer surplus of electricity to the macrogrids.
•	Development of local microgrids, in addition to improving the reliability of power supply, also allows to reduce carbon footprint, and often lower the cost of consumed energy, for example by peak shaving, leveling out peaks in electricity use by commercial and industrial consumers.
•	By participating in demand response, a change in customers’ demand for electricity corresponding to a change in the incremental cost of providing electricity, microgrids can help to save operators money.
•	How do you choose the right mix of power generation resources for your microgrid?
•	What is the upside of power generation from natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, wastewater gas, industrial syngas and other gases for microgrids?
•	Learn how Cogeneration and Trigeneration can meet your needs for efficient, cleaner, less expensive power to a microgrid.
•	Consultation on the technical side of your project - fuel types, feasibility studies, equipment and balance of plant selection, and more.
•	Regional incentive programs relevant to your business.
•	Options to deliver your project: engaging a service provider (ESCO, BOO etc.)
•	How to meet emissions targets using microgrids.
•	How you can combine traditional local cogeneration using gaseous fuels with renewable energy sources (e.g. hydrogen, biogas, fuel cells, sun, wind, etc.).
