Are microgrids a viable alternative to local utility grids?

Local utility grids do not have the resources to provide energy for the resulting increase in electricity demand. However, integrating the microgrids, including solar arrays and energy storage, will cover the additional power load and create a more sustainable energy mix than the local utilities can provide.

What are integrated microgrid systems?

Integrated Microgrid Systems provide the set of solutions that are needed to manage Distributed Energy Resources efficiently and can also help the grid address the growing demand while enabling higher levels of devolved control. MICROGRID?

Are microgrids a viable business model?
