A reliable power supply is essential. Microgrids have become a valued solution to mitigate threats — both natural and human-caused — to mission-critical facilities.
Why Microgrids Matter
No two microgrids are exactly alike. They can integrate multiple local generation and energy storage assets, whether connected to the grid or completely islanded. Built-in redundancies and advanced controls can help avoid prolonged outages while improving generation efficiency. The ability to remain operational during unplanned grid disturbances or outages helps harden your infrastructure and maintain critical operations.
The Burns & McDonnell Advantage
We have deployed microgrid resources and controls for the military, utilities and institutional clients across the United States. We work closely with your team to understand your goals and address the unique technical challenges that arise. We can identify similar challenges we have encountered on previously completed microgrid projects, and we have developed applicable technical solutions accordingly.
We also routinely prepare stability studies for our microgrid projects so systems are designed and operated within boundaries to maintain stable operation during the transition between grid-connected and island-mode operation.
Our experience includes decades of work as a trusted partner to develop secure mission-critical design, management and maintenance systems. Furthermore, we also facilitate coordination and collaboration between microgrid owners and local utilities to create a mutually beneficial relationship.
