Our team of seasoned professionals at Pfister Energy will consult with you to determine the best microgrid solution for your needs. We will then design, install, and maintain the system – our turnkey solution makes the process seamless from beginning to end. Your microgrid solution will be tailored to meet your budgetary and sustainability goals, and we will assist you in determining your financial options as well as any potential incentives you may be eligible for.
A microgrid is a self-sufficient energy system that serves a distinct geographic footprint, such as a college campus, hospital complex, business center, or neighborhood.
Microgrids are localized grids that can disconnect from the traditional grid to operate autonomously.
Within microgrids are one or more kinds of distributed energy (solar panels, wind turbines, and generators) that produce their power. In addition, many newer microgrids contain energy storage and have electric vehicle charging stations.
Our microgrid engineers understand all the codes and standards and will evaluate your energy needs and building resiliency goals, and can also provide consultation on what government incentives and rebates are available to help you best manage utility spending.
We can help facility managers take maximum control while reducing reliance on utilities.
Since microgrids can disconnect from the traditional grid and operate autonomously, they are able to operate while the main grid is down. This allows them to strengthen grid resilience, help mitigate grid disturbances, and function as a grid resource for faster system response and recovery.
Microgrids can help deploy more zero-emissions energy sources, make use of waste heat, reduce energy lost through transmission lines, help manage power supply and demand, and improve grid resilience to extreme weather.
Microgrids have many benefits to the environment, utility operators, and customers.
Installing a microgrid is a way for customers to reduce costs, and they also provide a revenue stream. They reduce costs through the efficient management of energy supply and supply revenue by selling energy and services back to the grid.
This means that microgrids give customers control in the energy market, and allow them to not just consume energy but produce It and control it through the use of microgrids. This turns customers into prosumers.
Microgrids can also leverage energy pricing. Electricity prices can fluctuate throughout the day, and the microgrid controller can leverage the fluctuation. The microgrid does this by orchestrating the use of its assets with the rise and fall of the price of electricity on the grid. When the demand for energy is high, and the prices are increased, the microgrid will use more of its own resources to avoid having to pay higher prices. When demand is low, and the microgrid has excess capacity, it can sell it back to the grid.
A microgrid may also help customers gain economic benefits by joining utility demand response programs, or by participating in state and federal clean energy programs. These include state renewable portfolio standard initiatives and federal production tax credits. Some states even have grant programs that were created just for microgrids.
