NASEO-NARUC Microgrids State Working Group Webinar: Achieving Community Resilience through Microgrids

January 13, 2021, 3:00 - 4:00 PM ET
Webinar/Virtual Meeting

Please join NASEO and NARUC on January 13, 2021 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET for a webinar on resilience through microgrids, followed by a meeting for working group members only from 4:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. ET. Improving reliability and resilience is a key driver of microgrid adoption. Community microgrids that provide power to municipally-owned or publicly-accessible buildings can benefit those connected buildings by delivering power and energy services during normal conditions and outages, as well as enable community members who can use the microgrid to access reliable energy during an outage. This webinar will highlight microgrid projects that have successfully provided resilience benefits to surrounding communities during power outages, including public safety power shutoffs. Panelists will address the following questions: What input did the community offer to shape the microgrids; how were those microgrids funded; who owns, operates, and maintains the microgrids; which revenue streams are making those microgrids pay off; and how are resilience services valued?
