Microgrid''s market acceptability and its viability are significantly related with several economic issues. The current policy on standby charges, net metering, Microgrid''s public utility status as well as the regulatory issues on the capability of small generators to serve neighbouring customers are more akin to distributed energy resources (DERs) but not
READ MOREThe net present cost for a hybrid microgrid is 19% lower in New Mexico and 35% lower in Maryland than a diesel-only microgrid. In California, the net present cost of the hybrid microgrid is negative because, unlike a diesel-only microgrid, a hybrid microgrid has lower life cycle costs than the power costs without a microgrid.

READ MOREMicrogrid. A microgrid is a local electrical grid with defined electrical boundaries, acting as a single and controllable entity. [1] It is able to operate in grid-connected and in island mode. [2] [3] A '' stand-alone microgrid '' or '' isolated microgrid '' only operates off-the-grid and cannot be connected to a wider electric power system. [4]
READ MOREMicrogrid economics works particularly well for certain customers when the system includes combined heat and power (CHP). With CHP, microgrids for hospitals, nursing homes, and recreational community centers become "a marriage made in heaven," Sathe said. "It''s two for one.
