Hybrid Microgrids
Integrated Energy Systems for Resilience, Flexibility, and Cost Savings
Hybrid microgrids combine renewable generation, energy storage, and dispatchable power into a single, flexible energy system. Designed for seamless operation either connected to or islanded from the grid, these solutions deliver reliable, independent power with minimal onsite construction and fast deployment.
Overview of Hybrid Microgrids
A hybrid microgrid integrates distributed energy resources (DERs)—including solar PV, battery storage, and clean-burning generators—under a unified control platform. These systems are pre-engineered, modular, and tailored to the energy needs of commercial, institutional, and critical infrastructure facilities.
They also serve as foundational assets for demand flexibility and Virtual Power Plants (VPPs), helping grid operators balance supply and demand during peak periods or emergencies.
