6 FAQs about [Microgrid Commissioning Outline]

What is a microgrid report?

This report provides (1) an overview of the microgrid planning, assessment, and design process for DoD installations and (2) is a resource for energy managers, policymakers, contractors, and other stakeholders involved in microgrid projects.

What is a microgrid?

The DOE defines a microgrid as a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources (DERs) within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the power grid.

What is a microgrid solicitation?

The microgrid solicitation was a design-build project and was awarded to a joint venture of Schneider Electric and Black and Veatch in 2016. Engineering design for the project was completed in 2017, and construction started in 2018. Construction completion and project commissioning are both expected in 2019.

Can microgrids be used in transmission-level resource planning?

The combination of these developments identifies benefits that microgrids can provide within many aspects of distribution planning. Ultimately, this development will enable microgrids to be included within transmission-level resource planning such as integrated resource planning processes.

Should microgrid planning and design tools be repurposed?

While microgrid planning and design tools achieve their project goals and requirements, repurposing them to meet new or evolving requirements is often a time consuming and difficult proposition.

What is a microgrid business model?

Such microgrids are owned by a local government entity that self-regulates. This business model may involve outright purchase of a portion of the utility distribution network by a government on behalf of its citizens. The following sub-sections contain short case studies of representative microgrid business models.
