Microgrids are locally-controlled power sources that can integrate multiple energy resources such as diesel, natural gas, wind or solar power. Microgrids provide independent power - when the traditional power grid goes out, a microgrid can immediately switch to backup generators. . A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. 2 A microgrid can operate in either grid-connected or in island mode, including entirely off-grid. . NLR has been involved in the modeling, development, testing, and deployment of microgrids since 2001. While traditionally thought of as a means of backup power, microgrids can also provide energy. . Microgrids can power whole communities or single sites like hospitals, bus stations and military bases.
