Companies presenting: ATX LED Nextek Cisco Systems CE+T America Emera Technololiges Direct Energy Partners Rectify Solar Enteligent Duke Energy
The first three hours of this workshop will review use cases of actual nano grid/microgrid architectures implemented in various market applications. A combination of design, construction, features, economics, challenges, and results will be presented and up for discussion of each system. Focus will be on the performance of the resulting installs including their contribution to reducing carbon footprint, improvement in reliability and resiliency.
Specific use cases on: -LVDC Power Distribution -AC/DC Power Conversion -Utility Grade Non-synchronous Microgrid Platform -DC Microgrid: Engineering-Design-Build -DC Bi-directional Fast EV Charger -DC Home
The last hour of the workshop, participants will take a special VIP pre-show tour of the live Grid-of-Grids demonstration on the tradeshow floor, where company representatives, including Emera Technologies, primary sponsor of the demonstration, will give insight into the details of the microgrids, including how it was designed, what equipment and technologies is included, how is interconnected with other microgrids, and how it functions under various operating and fault conditions.
As participants will be viewing the microgrid demonstration in advance of the show floor officially opening, all participants must wear closed toe shoes, as required by convention management. Participants will be escorted onto the floor to view the demonstration and will be required to leave immediately following.
