| | Recent events and developing threats remind us that as essential as the grid is to national and economic security, it is and always has been vulnerable.
The utility industry is responding to the changing threat profile with new technologies. Properly applied, these technologies can match the level of protection with the criticality of the asset.
This allows power producers and utilities to move away from a one-size-fits all approach, because not all assets are created equal. | >> Read more |

| Energy storage enables microgrids | Exploring hybrid energy storage systems | Commercial microgrid viability remains elusive. They can be difficult to justify aside from those serving a critical load, a remote facility or where the choice is between microgrid power and no power.
The business case needs more than a single play like outage ride-through or increasing local generation capacity. This is where storage can really make the difference, but only when the given device is carefully chosen and the microgrid is engineered as a whole. | >> Read more | |
