Oak Ridge National Laboratory are partnering with local organizations, nonprofits and universities to build resilience, microgrids
To provide more affordable, reliable and sustainable electricity to underserved communities like these, scientists from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory are partnering with local organizations, nonprofits and universities to build resilience into independent microgrids powered by renewable energy.
“I don’t know of a microgrid controller anywhere that can communicate and coordinate with another controller,” Ollis said. “We’re designing an architecture for multi-microgrid controls, so any number of microgrids can operate independently but share information to an orchestrator that will predict when switching, routing and connecting should happen.”
“We noticed how many people got sick who were pre-diabetic, or had high blood pressure, or were exposed to unhealthy living conditions and food — preventable conditions,” said Massol-Deyá. “Energy security being interrupted is about quality of life, and there were long-term consequences in the community.” Grassroots support for solar power built steadily as a result.
“Hopefully it will help not only to manage the microgrids, but also to protect the critical components like the energy storage unit,” said Massol-Deyá, who is also a professor at University of Puerto Rico Mayaguez, or UPRM. While the ORNL-derived technology could be a literal lifesaver in Puerto Rico, it also holds broader potential for enabling microgrids to play a key role in the global grid of the future. Intelligent microgrids that incorporate renewable energy are poised to advance grid flexibility and resiliency while supporting vital decarbonization efforts.
