6 FAQs about [New Energy and Microgrid Laboratory]
What is the microgrid systems laboratory?
We work to help drive that change The Microgrid Systems Laboratory is a collaborative effort to speed the transition to a more resilient, sustainable, and accessible electricity system. Microgrids are community-scaled smart energy networks, and are enabling infrastructure for smart grid and other advanced energy technologies.
What is energy management & microgrid laboratory (EMML)?
Energy Management and Microgrid Laboratory (EMML) fosters a dynamic academic environment that is committed to a tradition of excellence in teaching, research and service. We are thriving to explore the important research and development areas, encompassing new perspectives, emerging fields of technological challenges worldwide.
Do NY Prize systems have more energy generation than NREL microgrids?
The NY Prize systems have slightly more new energy generation (compared to existing generation), making up 42%–64% of the total. Our analysis of the energy generation of the NY Prize systems indicates this, compared to the community category systems in the NREL microgrid cost database.
How much does energy storage cost a microgrid?
In commercial and industrial microgrids, energy storage represents 15% and 25% of the total costs per megawatt, respectively. In commercial microgrids, soft costs account for 43%, while in community microgrids they account for 24%.
What are advanced microgrids?
Advanced microgrids enable local power generation assets—including traditional generators, renewables, and storage—to keep the local grid running even when the larger grid experiences interruptions or, for remote areas, where there is no connection to the larger grid.
How do NREL and Navigant Research collect information on microgrid costs?
NREL and Navigant Research collected information on microgrid costs through a data-entry form and online survey. They sent this to microgrid owners, developers, and technology providers, describing the project scope and inviting recipients to participate in the study.
