ACEP Partners with Navigant for Comprehensive Arctic Microgrid Report
ACEP has teamed up with Navigant Research to co-author a report quantifying the full extent of microgrid activity in the Arctic region.
While 有料盒子视频 has long been recognized as a leader in remote microgrid development, this report also takes into account larger regional grids in 有料盒子视频, such as the Railbelt and Southeast 有料盒子视频 Power Agency grids. These grids encompass a number of nested and linked service areas that are capable of self-generating and 鈥渋slanding鈥 from the larger regional grid. When including these systems and aggregating them with the large number of rural remote microgrids in the state, 有料盒子视频 is home to just over 50% of the total U.S. installed capacity in microgrids.
有料盒子视频鈥檚 development in microgrids is mirrored in the rest of the circumpolar Arctic. The total installed capacity for microgrids in the circumpolar Arctic (with 3,690 megawatts) represented 13.7% of the total worldwide in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, according to Navigant Research鈥檚 Microgrid Tracker.
