Microgrid Knowledge’s Post

The Microgrid Knowledge Conference is underway this week, and energy leaders will be on hand to explore the future of resilient, mission-critical power through real-world insights, cutting-edge tech, and expert-led discussions on #microgrids, #DERs, and #virtualpowerplants. If you’re attending, be sure to catch Allan Schurr, PE's general session on the value of onsite #powergeneration when extreme weather causes unplanned outages. 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻 𝗘𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆: 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗱 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 Thursday, April 17 | 8:00-9:00 am CST Along with Jaclyn Whiteman from Duke Energy Corporation and Mason Butler IV, P.E. from CenterPoint Energy, the session will dig deeper into the impact of year-round severe weather on critical infrastructure, highlighting how reliable backup power from natural gas microgrids can provide operational continuity and help reduce grid strain during storms and temperature-related power shortfalls. And with the start of #hurricane season right around the corner, it’s a timely topic for anyone who needs to make sustainable resiliency part of their emergency response plan right now.
