Microgrid Disruptors or Enablers

Microgrids continue to prove their value to electric grids around the world by improving reliability and resiliency across many different use cases. Microgrids support the interests of connected customers by ensuring electricity is available during electric grid disruptions and outages—regardless of their duration. The ability of the controlling entity to connect and disconnect loads from the utility grid can prevent localized outages from cascading to larger scale outages by providing grid operators a mechanism by which to isolate disruptions to preserve service to other critical facilities and loads.
