microgrid technology

Microgrid technology refers to a small, localized network of electricity sources and loads that can operate independently or connected to a larger grid. It typically includes generators, such as renewable energy sources (solar, wind), storage systems (batteries), and control systems that manage energy flow. Microgrids enhance energy resilience, allowing communities or facilities to maintain power during outages, reduce reliance on the main grid, and incorporate cleaner energy solutions. They are flexible, scalable, and help optimize energy use, making them valuable for hospitals, campuses, or remote areas seeking reliable and sustainable electricity.
