Microgrid power project to keep Meritus humming during outages

▤ Summary

Meritus Health completed a microgrid project that keeps its medical center running during outages. The system uses on-site solar, CHP, electric vehicle charging, absorption chilling, and an intelligent microgrid controls platform. The project is expected to save about $1.6 million per year and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Meritus also received more than $1 million in grants to support feasibility, preconstruction, and capital costs. The project went live in October after about a year of installation.
