Many organizations – from manufacturing and distribution centers, to healthcare and other critical facilities, to schools and grocery stores – are eager to explore microgrid systems and backup power. Depending on whether you face momentary power disruptions or long-term power outages, there are a few options available to improve power quality and your organization’s resilience. Stem has proven experience helping clients evaluate their microgrid architecture to build a technology platform that achieves their business goals.
Microgrids are localized grids that can operate independently. If the grid shuts down, microgrids are still able to operate, providing resilience. Microgrids are often integrated with renewable power sources such as solar, using locally generated electricity when the grid is offline.
As a longtime market leader, Stem brings extensive experience with energy storage incentives that build resilience. Our best-in-class microgrid optimization software – Athena – creates the most viable combination of onsite energy resources so customers can achieve the level of resilience they want. And Stem’s proprietary microgrid controller makes it easy to configure multiple onsite resources for backup power.
