ORNL developed a hardware-based network microgrid testbed to evaluate advanced controllers. The testbed comprises multiple microgrids designed to operate independently, grid-tied, or as a network
In Adjuntas, Puerto Rico – a mountainside town with two community microgrids that are designed to provide energy resilience – researchers with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are studying
Researchers at ORNL, in collaboration with partner universities, have developed a suite of technologies to enable the resilient operation of networked microgrids. These include advances in protection,
The new report, “Ownership Models and Data Strategy for Microgrids,” is based on a collaboration between Think Microgrid and the Oak Ridge National Lab in Tennessee. The
The results of the survey are presented in this report with the current status of commercial microgrid controllers analyzed, potential research gaps identified, and future research trends revealed.
In 2020, the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) awarded nearly $4 million to a team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to develop an optimized
This report highlights the objective of the NY Prize microgrid feasibility studies, provides background on the technical approach used in the analysis, and also outlines fundamental considerations for
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is preparing to demonstrate a new microgrid orchestrator in Puerto Rico that will ensure the reliability of electrical service even if parts of the microgrid are
Recently, Ollis has led the deployment of a microgrid governed by an ORNL-developed open source controller—called CSEISMIC, for Complete Systemlevel Efficient and Interoperable
